Nelly Korda Wins Seventh LPGA Title of Season

World number one Nelly Korda achieved a historic seventh LPGA Tour title of the season by winning the ANNIKA tournament, making her the first American to do so since 1990. At 26, Korda's victory at the Pelican Golf Club in Florida saw her shoot a three-under par 67, overcoming a two-shot deficit with an impressive five consecutive birdies on the back nine. This win is part of a remarkable season, with Korda having secured victories in six of her first seven starts and a total of 15 career titles. Her season earnings are nearing the LPGA single-season record, with $4,164,430 in official earnings. Korda, who has also been awarded the 2024 Rolex Player Of The Year, is set to be a favorite for the upcoming CME Group Tour Championship. Despite a brief pause due to a neck injury, Korda's return was marked by a dominant performance, solidifying her place in LPGA history.
