Nelly Korda is back in contention for a record-breaking win at the LPGA’s Pelican Women’s Championship. The American golfer leads the field after the second round, shooting a 67 to sit at 12-under par, two strokes ahead of Atthaya Thitikul.
Korda is looking to win her fourth consecutive LPGA event, which would be a record for the longest winning streak in the history of the tour.
The 23-year-old has been in impressive form this season, winning three times and finishing in the top-10 in all but two of her starts.
She will need to continue her strong play over the weekend if she wants to make history and set a new LPGA record.
Minjee Lee captured her third major title at the Women’s PGA Championship with remarkable skill and unwavering composure. Her commanding performance, marked by masterful strategy on pivotal holes, propelled her to a stunning victory and cemented her reputation as a powerhouse in women’s golf
These absences add a surprising twist to the major championship race, with several of golf’s biggest stars now out of contention. No. 2 **Jin Young Ko** and No. 3 **Atthaya Thitikul** are among the favorites remaining in the field.
