Frisco, Texas – Nelly Cord is hungry.
Approaching a dream will do this with a golf player. Making mistakes that cost you a chance to achieve something important will leave you with a void to fill.
This was the cord walking out 18th in Erin Hills a few weeks ago. She had finally put herself in a position to win an open women of American women – a tournament she historically fought – but some Sunday lacked Putts and premature Bogeys saw her finish two shots After the eventual champion Maja Stark. One year after making a shocking 10 in the opening round at the Lancaster Country Club “Put a dagger in her (her) heart, Korda There was another open scar in the SH.BA.
“Just an absolute heartbroken,” Korda said after finishing second in Erin Hills. “But that’s golf.
“Golfists, many of us, are perfectionists. So when I go out here and a golf course prevails as it does, it’s never a beautiful feeling.”
Open Women’s Open is a title that Korda has coveted since she made her debut at the age of 14. It is a test that should, on paper, suit her game. But before Erin Hills, Open of Women’s Open had pumped Corda, exposing Meta to her otherwise prevailing game. Her performance in Wisconsin was, in general, spectacular. She directed the field to the strokes won: driving and was third in SG: Access. But her driving betrayed her for most of the week, and she left Wisconsin with a $ 1 million control and a “what if”.
While Korda will never forget her conclusion in Erin Hills, World no. 1 arrives at the KPMG women’s PGA championship this week that needs to continue as it prepares to take on the Fields Ranch East in PGA Frisco to try to win its third major title.
“I think it just makes you hungry,” Korda said on Tuesday for her miss in Erin Hills. “To me, I hate to make mistakes. Of course, I love to win. You don’t have to win often, but there is nothing like being in quarrel, so I think this is a kind of what makes me wish and work more and put myself in that position too
“You can look at it in a positive way, you can see it in a negative way. But at the end of the day, three weeks after I can rotate it in a positive way, and will make me hungry.”
Post-Masters features of Rory Mcilroy? Lydia Ko understands existential research
After a vague 2024 season in which she won seven times, including her second major title in the Chevron Championship, Korda is still looking to get you on board in 2025.
The LPGA has had 15 different winners so far this season, with Mao Saigo and Maja Stark receiving the first two diplomas of the season – respectively Chevron and US Open, while Korda is still looking.
“Golf golf,” Korda said. “Yeardo year is just as different. Last year, coming to this event, I had five wins. I think Hannah Green also had many wins under its belt, too, entering this event. Just just golf. You just have to ride in waves, and competition is getting better and better every year.”
Cord will not only have to fight the wind conditions of Texas and strong greens in Fields Ranch each, but she is also struggling with a neck that appeared during practice on Monday. As she tried to hit a ball from the rough, the neck of Korda entered a complete spasm, which made her lose the champions dinner.
On Tuesday, Cord covered his neck with KT tape, but world no. 1 said she was feeling better and doesn’t expect it to be a matter to come on Thursday when it turns off Lydia AND Jeeno thitikul.
For Cord, this week in Frisco is a chance to pass an open women’s heart in the US and increase its growing heritage. The Thelli to do this is something that only cord can find. But when a young fan gave her a LEGO set on Tuesday, it was an easy memory to get back to horse, dust and ride again.
“Such moments, interactions like this, that with the fuel my love for the game,” Korda said. “Then competing against the best players in the world, I think everything falls, if you want it inside, and that’s a question you always have to ask yourself.”
With this, Nelly Korda, with her tapped neck and open American wounds, came out of the PGA Frisco Press room. MARCH IN MAJOR NO. 3 had officially started.
