If you had asked Nelly Korda what she was most excited about coming into 2024, she probably would have said becoming an aunt.

 

Korda was overjoyed when her sister Jessica announced in August 2023 that she was pregnant with her first child and couldn’t wait to meet her nephew, who was due in February 2024. But little did Nelly know what else going to happen for her in the new year or what other items she would get to tick off her personal and professional bucket lists as her already bright star rose to new heights, both on and off the golf course.

 

The whirlwind began in Korda’s hometown of Bradenton, Fla., at the LPGA Drive On Championship, a tournament hosted for the first time ever at Bradenton Country Club. With her ninth career victory on the line, Korda held a four-stroke lead ahead of the final round but relinquished her advantage late after making a couple of costly missteps that left her three shots behind Lydia Ko with two holes to go.

 

Korda dug deep, making a gritty eagle on the 17th hole and then nearly holing her second shot on 18 to win in regulation, tapping in for birdie to post at 11-under and match Ko, ultimately sending the

pair to extra holes

. After Korda and Ko tied the first playoff hole, the second saw Ko lip out a short par putt and Korda capitalize with an up-and-down par save to collect her first LPGA Tour title since the 2023 ANNIKA driven by Gainbridge at Pelican.

“I didn’t think I even had a chance, and then obviously making the eagle on 17, I knew that I needed a birdie on 18 to even have a chance to get into a playoff,” said Korda after the victory. “Just wow. Good ole Nelly fashion, making it dramatic.”
