Overview
- Korda said the roughly five-week layoff was a precaution to head off another flare-up of recurring neck pain.
- She put the clubs away for nearly three weeks and focused on twice-daily neck strengthening using the Iron Neck.
- The neck issue has resurfaced at least three times since last summer, including an eight-week absence and a withdrawal from last month’s International Crown.
- She also switched into TaylorMade P•7CB irons to produce a higher flight on approach shots for the season’s stretch run.
- Sitting No. 10 in CME points after a T4 at the Lotte, she is safely into next week’s CME Group Tour Championship and still chasing her first win of 2025.
