Nelly Korda Clinches Dramatic Victory at LPGA Drive On Championship

Korda's Ninth LPGA Tour Title Win Comes After Eagle-Birdie Finish, Beating Lydia Ko in Playoff

Nelly Korda clinched a dramatic victory at the LPGA Drive On Championship in Florida, beating Lydia Ko in a playoff.
Korda's win marks her ninth title on the LPGA Tour, and her first since she defended her Pelican Women’s Championship crown in November 2022.
Lydia Ko, who won the season-opening Tournament of Champions last week, was within touching distance of securing the 21st Tour title needed to secure automatic qualification into the LPGA Tour Hall of Fame.
Korda rallied from a three-stroke deficit with an eagle-birdie finish to force a playoff with Ko.
Korda's victory was especially meaningful as it took place in her hometown, with a large crowd of supporters in attendance.
