This is the first time since Yani Tseng in 2011 that someone has won seven times in a year, and Korda is the first American to accomplish the feat since Hall of Famer Beth Daniel did so in 1990.
Overnight, Australian time, Sports Illustrated shared the first images from Korda’s SI Swimsuit shoot, and they’re just as confident and classy as you might expect from the 2024 Chevron champion.
Nelly Korda has withdrawn from the next two LPGA tournaments due to injury. Korda, the World No. 1, announced on social media she hurt her neck during practice for the LPGA’s Asia swing.
Korda didn’t post any golf content from her visit to Whistling Straits, however what she did post was video of her at the gun range, making it clear she’s not to be messed with on or off the course.
A “let’s move on” focus was apparent in the world No.1’s pre-tournament press conference when she got in a sly joke on getting back to business while reflecting on her appreciation for her Solheim Cup teammates.
The LPGA, beyond a statement acknowledging the transportation challenge, did not provide an answer to multiple requests to confirm the timeline of what happened.
In winds that gusted to more than 40mph, as many as 16 members of the 144-strong field gathered in the Home of Golf for the AIG Women’s Open Championship managed to eke out scores in red figures.
At Le Golf National, the American star will be hoping to rekindle the form that saw her win six out of seven starts between January and May, but she also has other things on her mind. Sweet, delicious things.
The Olympics could be the return to the form the top player in the women’s game has been looking for, and two weeks of hard work has her pointing to a second gold medal.
Australia’s highest-ranked golfer, Hannah Green, expects Nelly Korda to break free of a dramatic form slump and be one of the players to beat at the Amundi Evian Championship in France, which begins today.
