News about Nelly Korda

If the Ryder Cup has thrown up an inconvenient truth it is that the hype is rarely accompanied by close scoring. Its female equivalent has no such concern ahead of Friday's event in Virginia. That Europe have crossed the Atlantic as holders of the Solheim Cup is the legacy of last year's draw in Spain, with three of the previous four clashes with the USA decided by two points or less. This 19th edition is set to follow the trend, although given the Americans have the two top-ranked players in the world - Nelly Korda and Lilia Vu - they are favourites to win at home.

There is something profoundly moving about standing in a place where sporting history has been made. Be it at Wimbledon, the Stadio Olimpico, Madison Square Garden, Lord's, the Nou Camp ... visit any of these hallowed grounds and the echoes of defeat and historic triumphs are ever-present.

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW ISABEL BALDWIN: Juggling an Ivy League course load can be a tall order for most average college students. Balancing Stanford studies and life on the LPGA Tour is another achievement altogether. Yet somehow, amid that busy schedule, Rose Zhang has managed to find time for the Olympic dream. The 21-year-old was heralded into the world of professional golf as the game's next greatest rising star when she won on her LPGA debut at the Mizuho Americas Open last June - becoming the first woman to do so since Beverly Hanson in 1951. 13 months - and not even a full LPGA season later - the Irvine, California native has sealed a second professional victory, a World No. 9 ranking and a ticket to Paris.

Kai Madison Trump has not only raised eyebrows following her speech at the RNC over the last 24 hours but also for her golf skills, as both fans of the sport and Trump voters flooded her social media with comments.  Taking to Instagram on Thursday after Kai praised her presidential grandfather in Milwaukee, a day earlier, golf fans, some of whom are also Republican, wondered what it would take for the 17-year-old to play alongside the likes of No. 1 Nelly Korda on the LPGA under a post highlighting her swing from roughly a week ago. 'Nice! I'm sure you have the college recruits looking at that swing,' a fan said.

Indiana Fever rookie Caitlin Clark won the ESPY for Best College Athlete - Women's Sports. During the ESPY's Red Carpet Show on Thursday, the WNBA's rookie sensation secured her second ESPY after winning the same award in 2023. Clark's stellar college career at the University of Iowa lifted her over nominees Haleigh Bryant, Sarah Franklin, and Izzy Scane.

The world's No 1 women's golfer, Nelly Korda, has withdrawn from next week's Aramco Team Series event after revealing a freak injury. Korda said Friday morning she was bitten by a dog last weekend while competing at the Women's PGA Championship in Washington. Korda missed the cut at the tournament, her second straight at a major event and third missed cut overall. 

World No. 1 women's golfer Nelly Korda let out some emotions after a very rough day at the LPGA Championship led to a third straight missed cut. After winning the Chevron Championship - one of women's golf's five majors - back in April, she's missed the cut at the next two majors: the US Women's Open and this weekend's LPGA. Korda went into the second round at Sahalee Golf Club in Washington state having shot a three-under 69 in the previous day and sat only a stroke behind then-leader Lexi Thompson.

Nelly Korda endured a miserable start to the women's US Open on Thursday, shooting a 10 on a par three after finding water three times. It was a devastating start for the No. 1 player in women's golf at Lancaster Country Club, a course that already was playing difficult enough that birdies were hard to find. Korda walked off the green and removed her visor, placing her hand over her forehead for a few seconds before walking over to the next tee.

This is the moment an unlucky golfer killed a bird with her tee shot at the US Women's Open on Thursday. The par-three 12th hole at Lancaster Country Club hit the headlines for a number of reasons on day one of competition, firstly when star Nelly Korda recorded a 10 after going in the water three times. It was just as chaotic for Isi Gabsa the same morning, despite her tee shot hitting the green at the first time of asking.

Scottie Scheffler may be the hottest player on the PGA Tour at the moment but there's one golfer who's arguably the best in the world right now: Nelly Korda. The LPGA superstar is one tournament away from history as she enters the Cognizant Founders Cup in Clifton, New Jersey, this week. Her second major victory at the Chevron Championship was her fifth straight win and tied streaks by Nancy Lopez in 1978 and Annika Sorenstam in 2004-05. And she has teed herself up to break that record and hunt down another belonging to Tiger Woods this weekend - just days after dazzling at the Met Gala. Amid Met Gala appearances and record-making rounds, there's no reason to suggest that Korda can't give women's golf the Caitlin Clark treatment.

WNBA star Angel Reese and golf icon Nelly Korda were among the athletes to hit the red carpet at Monday night's Met Gala. Celebrities from across music, TV, film and sports descended on New York for the annual fundraising gala in Manhattan. The theme of this year's Met Gala is 'Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion' and the event fell on Reese's 22nd birthday.

Golf glamor girl Paige Spiranac is relishing in the moment for women in sports after a banner week for superstars in their respective sports. Spiranac took to Twitter after American women's golfer Nelly Korda won the Chevron Championship - her fifth straight victory on the LPGA Tour. '5 straight wins for Nelly Korda! Pretty cool to see Nelly and Scottie [Scheffler] dominating,' Spiranac posted.

Fans will be seeing Tiger Woods a lot sooner than they expected after it was announced that the golf legend would be teeing it up on Monday. The 48-year-old had his long-awaited return to the PGA Tour at Riviera Country Club last month, but he was compelled to withdraw six holes from the second round of the Genesis Invitational due to sickness. Many have speculated that Woods, the 15-time major winner, will next compete at the Arnold Palmer Invitational or The Players Championship later this month, but it was announced on Saturday that Woods' next appearance will be at the Seminole Pro-Am on March 4. Woods will appear alongside Rory McIlroy, Justin Thomas, Tony Finau, Collin Morikawa, Cameron Young, and Nelly Korda at the prestigious Seminole pro-member tournament, as well as NFL legend Tom Brady.

As 2023 comes to an end, it gives us a chance to reflect on a memorable year of sport with many memorable moments. Among other highlights, we saw Manchester City win the Treble, South Africa win back-to-back Rugby World Cups, Spain wins the Women's World Cup in football, and Australia lift the Cricket World Cup. If you thought it was fine, wait until you see what 2024 has lined up in the calendar, with a spectacular 12 months of action in the pipeline. The likes of AFCON, Euro 2024, and the Olympics and Paralympics are all likely to be featured alongside numerous other big events. Mail Sport offers the ultimate guide to another bumper year of sport in 2024, reflecting the delectable line up of tournaments and historic tournaments.

MALAGA ISLAND OF THE SLOW JATES. The snail is queen in this land of the slow. The magnificent drama of this Solheim Cup has rolled out at a tumultuous pace, so it is perhaps only correct that Europe's remarkable comeback to 8-8 has been led by Carlota Ciganda. It has been a fascinating match, one that went largely in favour of the Americans after one bruising session, but it now stands level for four singles. For the first time this week, Finca Cortesin's momentum favors Europe. And it's largely due to the brilliance of a Spaniard who was barred from the Evian Championship just two months ago due to her playing speed. Ciganda is being discussed in much kinder terms, and rightly so on a course where rounds are taking longer than five and a half hours.

RIATH AL-SAMARRAI: Georgia Hall is crossing her fingers for no controversy at Solheim Cup this year, but she is doing nothing to mask her excitement that Europe will triumph. The biennial showdown against the United States has a reputation as one of the sport's most exciting experiences. Explosions of discord are easy to find in the recent past, with Europe seeking a landmark third straight victory this week. Madelene Sagstrom was put to tears on the first day fourballs after being punished for picking up her opponent's ball too quickly, when Nelly Korda of the United States had ostensibly missed a putt for eagle.

Minjee Lee has made her move as she eyes a third golf major in three years at the the KPMG Women's PGA Championship in Springfield, New Jersey

Bella Simoes had already been dubbed the most popular golfer of her age when she made news earlier this week when she attempted to qualify for the US Women's Open at just age nine. Even though her LPGA Tour wasn't fruitful, it's clear she already has the talent to be the LPGA Tour's next superstar. The Brazilian youngster has already a large fan base on social media to accompany her packed trophy cabinet, which has seen sponsorship deals roll in.

Players from the PGA Tour and LPGA Tour will compete for a $4 million purse during a new mixed-team tournament in Naples, Florida, which the two circuits revealed Wednesday. The Grant Thornton Invitational, which will be played at Tiburon Golf Club from December 8-10, will feature a 32-player field split evenly between professionals from both tours and development, as well as additional format details. The tournament will be based on the QBE Shootout, an unofficial money event that is traditionally played during the wrap-around season's December break. On NBC and Golf Channel, it will be shown live.
