The 2023 Grant Thornton Invitational is a one-of-a-kind tournament where LPGA Tour golfers pair up with PGA Tour golfers. 2023 Mexico Open winner Tony Finau teamed up with Nelly Korda and the pair stormed their way to an early lead.

The pairing of Finau-Korda currently holds a one-stroke advantage over the pairs of Leona Maguire and Lucas Glover, and Denny McCarthy and Megan Khang. The groups tied in second carded 15-under 57 at the end of the first day. Korda and Finau complemented each other's game and the latter even applauded the LPGA Tour golfer for her performance.

Finau was quoted as saying via Golfweek:

“When Nelly is following me around the course, it makes the game feel pretty simple.”

Finau added:

“She was able to make the putts and clutch up when we really needed to make putts.”

This is the first time the PGA Tour and the LPGA Tour have hosted a mixed tournament since 1999. Korda and Finau are in a strong position to clinch the win, however, they will have to battle it out for the alternate shot format on Saturday.
