Goodbye fans, I am leaving but promise to return back: nelly korda American golf ahlete Announce

Nelly Korda is the dominant force in women’s golf right now, and the world No 1 has the opportunity to demonstrate that once again with an eighth LPGA Tour victory of 2024 at the season-ending CME Group Tour Championship this week – live on Sky Sports Golf from 8pm on Thursday.

The numbers behind Korda’s triumphant 2024
Korda joined Kathy Whitworth (1973), Nancy Lopez (1978, 1979) and Beth Daniel (1990) as the only Americans since 1970 with seven or more wins in a single season when beating Charley Hull to The ANNIKA title on Sunday.

The 26-year-old is also the first player since Yani Tseng in 2011 to win seven times in a single season, with the first five of those victories coming in successive tournaments to see her tie Lopez (1978) and Annika Sorenstam (2004-05) for the most consecutive LPGA Tour wins.

“Honestly, it’s been a crazy year,” Korda said ahead of the CME Group Tour Championship. “I’m grateful for all of it. I am grateful for the highs; grateful for the lows; grateful to be doing what I love in front of people, hopefully inspiring the next generation. It’s really tough to win out here against such great players.”

When claiming her sixth title of the season, the Mizuho Americas Open, Korda became just the fourth player in the tour’s history to win six or more times in a season before the end of May, and only the second player to do so in the last 70 years.Yet, 2024 has not been a year of unbridled success, with some low marks thrown in, none more so than Korda’s stretch of three missed cuts in a row, covering the US Women’s Open – in which she carded a 10 on a par-three on her way to a 10-over-par opening round – to the Women’s PGA Championship.
