Nelly Korda has had a busy schedule and is enjoying some much needed time away from the course. She has competed in 10 LPGA Tour events so far this season, and her performance has been great, with 10 cuts made and four top-10 finishes.

The 26-year-old golfer is still yet to land her first win of the season. However, she placed a solo second in the 2025 Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions and also tied for second in the U.S. Women’s Open.

After her third round at the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship, Nelly Korda admitted that the course was brutal and the wind was negatively affecting her game. She also admitted to being exhausted and stated that it was “interesting” to play in those conditions. She stated (via ASAP Sports),

“Trust me, it's so brutal out here... I thought Erin Hills was a mental test, but jeez, this one is a real mental test.”

Korda’s performance at Fields Ranch East marks her third-poorest performance so far this year. Her poorest was a T28 finish at the T-Mobile Match Play, followed by a T22 finish at the Ford Championship.
