World number one Nelly Korda insists she is taking nothing for granted as she bids to secure a remarkable fifth straight win and second major title in the Chevron Championship. (More Golf News)
Korda took a seven-week break after winning her first title of the year, the LPGA Drive On Championship, in January, and returned to win three events in the space of three weeks, including beating Ireland바카라s Leona Maguire in the final of the T-Mobile Match Play.
The 25-year-old is the first woman to win on four consecutive starts since Lorena Ochoa in 2008 and is also the first to enter a major on such a streak since Annika Sorenstam.
Sorenstam바카라s run came between the end of the 2004 season and the start of 2005 and the Swedish star went on to win the Kraft Nabisco by eight shots.
바카라In 2021 I went on a run, and then in 2022 and 2023 golf really humbled me,바카라 admitted Korda, who won four times in 2021, including her sole major title to date in the Women바카라s PGA Championship.
바카라There are ups and downs. Every athlete goes through the rollercoaster, and that is what makes the sport so great. You mature and grow so much and learn more about yourself.
바카라You never take these weeks for granted. You always try to appreciate and become very grateful for them.
바카라It makes just all the hard work so worth it. But I think I바카라ve learned so much about myself even through the losses.바카라
Korda has had one week since her last victory to recharge the batteries ahead of the first women바카라s major of the season at Carlton Woods in Texas, where she finished a shot outside the play-off won by Lilia Vu last year.
바카라Last week I was so tired,바카라 Korda added. 바카라I don바카라t think I바카라ve ever been that tired. I would wake up and I was ready to go back to bed but I couldn바카라t. It바카라s almost to the point where you just can바카라t sleep, you바카라re just overly tired.
바카라I made sure to prioritise any rest. My parents are on top of me to not overdo it.
바카라I always want to practice more, do more to be better. So made sure to prioritize my rest and making sure to go to sleep early and sleeping a lot, too. That바카라s the number one thing for recovery. Overall this week I feel really good.바카라
Korda and Vu have been drawn together for the first two rounds alongside Australia바카라s Minjee Lee, while English amateur Lottie Woad, winner of the Augusta National Women바카라s Amateur earlier this month, is in a group with Madelene Sagstrom and Gabriela Ruffels.
