Nelly Korda has 'no complaints' after recording her lowest round at U.S. Women's Open

Nelly Korda had no regrets after recording her lowest round at the U.S. Women's Open. She scored 67 in the second round and finished in second place on the leaderboard. Following the round, she shared that she had no regrets.

The LPGA’s X page shared a photo of Korda and quoted the golfer, who had no complaints on the second day of the event. The quote read:

“No complaints, really. A couple balls hit the bottom of the cup so I was really happy to see that.”

Nelly Korda also compared her putting in the first round with the second round. She said, via ASAP Sports:

“Honestly, I was hitting really good putts yesterday. I was hitting it exactly where I wanted to and they just weren't falling. It was one of those days. Today I did the same thing; I didn't really try to do anything different, tried to roll it over an intermediate target. My distance control has been really good on the putting green, so hopefully I can keep trending in the right direction heading into the weekend.”

Korda shared in the same press conference that the U.S. Women's Open was ‘demanding’ as compared to the other LPGA events, which is why her shots had to be calculated.
