Congratulations are in order as Nelly Korda secured the prestigious trophy of the Chevron Championship on Sunday, April 21, at The Club at Carlton Woods. Wyndham Clark and J.T. Poston praised the World No.1 golfer for her incredible achievement. Not only did she win the major, but it was also her fifth consecutive victory of the year.

Korda has been dominating the greens since the beginning of the season, emerging victorious in five out of the six events she has played so far.

Clark and Poston participated in the PGA Tour's signature event, the RBC Heritage, and during a press conference on Sunday, April 21.

Speaking of Korda, Clark dubbed her the "best female (golfer) in the world" and said:

"Scotty's about to win four out of five or whatever it is. And that's unbelievable to win, five in a row is amazing. And especially one being a major that she just won so kudos to her. She's playing amazing and clearly the best female (golfer) in the world." (1:29-1:46)

Poston was also impressed with Korda's winning five tournaments in a row. He appreciated the 25-year-old golfer and said:

"I don't know her personally. But five in a row is pretty impressive and I know today was a major day. That's pretty impressive. I mean obviously what Scottie's been doing has been pretty impressive and for her to reel off five in a row is hard to fathom." (1:07-1:24)
