Nelly Korda goes into the biggest week on the women’s golf calendar as a red-hot favourite to land her first US Open title.
Nelly Korda arrives into the biggest week on the women’s golf calendar as a red-hot favourite to land her first US Open title having won six of her last seven tournaments.
"Would be really cool to see Nelly get an exemption to a PGA Tour tournament," said the American, who is routinely one of the most interesting and insightful players on X . Subsequently we have seen forays into the men’s game by the likes of Michelle Wie and Lexi Thompson and on occasion they have added lustre and intrigue to otherwise humdrum, run-of-the-mill men’s tournaments.
She inevitably carries the burden of being a hot favourite and is the primary focus at Lancaster Country Club in Philadelphia. Everything suggests she is more than capable of handling the pressure. Korda’s biggest threat is probably Australia’s world number five Hannah Green, the only other player to have won a tournament in which the American has played during the last four months.
