Nelly Korda, the dominant force in women’s golf, is gearing up to take on the challenging Lancaster Country Club at the U.S. Women’s Open. Despite her recent string of victories, Korda knows that this major tournament is no walk in the park.
Described as a “beast” by Korda herself, the U.S. Women’s Open is known for being the toughest test in women’s golf. The course features hilly, tree-lined terrain, partially blind shots, and constantly changing hole directions, making it a true challenge for even the best players in the world.
Korda, who has been on a winning streak not seen since Lorena Ochoa in 2008, is set to make her mark at the 79th edition of the Women’s Open. With six wins in seven starts, including a recent victory at the Mizuho Americas Open, Korda is a force to be reckoned with.
However, the competition at the U.S. Women’s Open is fierce, with players like defending champion Allisen Corpuz and rising star Rose Zhang looking to make their mark. The purse for the tournament is a whopping $12 million, with the winner set to take home $2.4 million.
As the excitement builds for the start of the tournament on Thursday, all eyes will be on Korda as she looks to add another major title to her impressive resume. With the tough course and fierce competition, the U.S. Women’s Open promises to be a thrilling and unpredictable event.
