Meanwhile, this season on the LPGA Tour, Nelly Korda has competed in 14 tournaments but is still looking forward to a win. She was the runner-up at the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions and the U.S. Women’s Open.

She started the campaign with a runner-up finish in the season-opening event but then recorded a T7 at the Founders Cup. She was tied for 22nd at the Ford Championship and T16 at the JM Eagle LA Championship.

Some of her notable finishes are T15 at the ShopRite LPGA Classic, T19 at the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship, and T5 at the Mizuho Americas Open.
