Nelly Korda Named LPGA Player of the Year for 2024

Posted : 05 November 2024

American golfer Nelly Korda has been awarded the LPGA's points-based Player of the Year for the 2024 season, marking a significant achievement with three tournaments still remaining. The 26-year-old has enjoyed a stellar year, amassing six victories along with three top-10 finishes, solidifying her position as the world No. 1. Notably, Korda accomplished the remarkable feat of winning five consecutive tournaments at one point in the season, culminating in her second major championship.

 

Reflecting on her successful season, Korda expressed gratitude for the support of her team, acknowledging the challenges she faced along the way. "This season has had its highs and challenges, and I'm just really grateful for the people around me who have helped me get here," she stated in an LPGA news release. She emphasized that her accomplishments are a testament to the collective effort of her team.

 

Although Korda missed the fall Asian swing due to a minor neck injury, she continued to represent the United States in significant competitions, including the women's golf event at the Paris Olympics and the victorious Solheim Cup team. Prior to the recent Japan Classic, Ayaka Furue was the only player with a chance to surpass Korda in points, but her share of 10th place last week ended her pursuit of the award.
