Report: Imran Sohail
World No. 1 golfer Nelly Korda will look to continue her remarkable season this week as she competes in the Women’s PGA Championship at Hazeltine National Golf Club in Minnesota.
Korda enters the tournament in outstanding form after winning the first two major championships of the season, putting herself in position to capture a third consecutive major title.
The 27-year-old has enjoyed one of the most successful years of her career, balancing a busy schedule that has included tournament competition, promotional appearances, and growing her profile as one of golf’s biggest stars.
Despite the demands that come with success, Korda says she remains focused on staying true to herself both on and off the course.
“I just want to be genuine and authentic,” Korda said ahead of the tournament. “The more experience you have in different situations, the more comfortable you become.”
Korda’s impressive 2026 campaign includes four victories in nine starts, with only one finish outside the top 10. Her consistent performances have helped establish her as one of the dominant players on the LPGA Tour this season.
She also leads the race for the LPGA’s lowest scoring average, further highlighting her strong form heading into one of the year’s most important events.
With confidence high and momentum on her side, Korda will be one of the leading contenders at Hazeltine National as she pursues another major championship and continues an already memorable season.
Golf fans will be watching closely to see whether the world’s top-ranked player can add another milestone to her growing list of achievements.
