Nelly Korda goes for a sixth straight win on LPGA Tour
CLIFTON, N.J. (AP) — Things are going well for Nelly Korda these days, that’s for sure.
The 25-year-old has won a record-tying five straight tournament starts. She has the No. 1 ranking in the world, along with the 2024 lead in earnings, scoring average and points for the player of the year award. And on top of it all, she got to live out a childhood dream by walking the red carpet at the Met Gala earlier this week.
Korda will try to become the first woman to win six consecutive LPGA starts when play in the 72-hole Cognizant Founders Cup gets underway Thursday at the Upper Montclair Country Club.
“If I’m being honest, I have not thought about it at all because I’ve had so much going on those two weeks,” said Korda, who has not played since winning The Chevron Championship in Texas. “Then obviously yesterday — or Monday — I had the Met, so haven’t had too much time to think about it.”
