Korda (neck) withdraws from next two events

American golfer Nelly Korda has withdrawn from the next two events on the LPGA Tour due to a neck injury.

Korda, who is currently ranked No. 2 in the world, has been battling a neck issue for the past few weeks. She aggravated the injury during the final round of the LPGA Mediheal Championship last weekend.

Korda is scheduled to miss the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship, which begins on June 23, and the Meijer LPGA Classic, which begins on June 30.

The 23-year-old Korda has won five times on the LPGA Tour, including the 2021 KPMG Women’s PGA Championship. She is expected to make a full recovery and return to competition in July.

Feel free to let me know if you need any further modifications or assistance!

Winner’s bag: Lydia Ko’s gear at the 2024 AIG Women’s Open

Lydia Ko’s victory at the 2024 AIG Women’s Open was a testament to her skill and dedication. But it was also a showcase for her impressive equipment.

Ko’s driver was a Ping G430 LST, which she used to average 272 yards off the tee. Her irons were Ping i525s, with a 5-wood, 3-hybrid, and 4-hybrid.

For her short game, Ko relied on Ping Glide 4.0 wedges and a Ping Sigma 2 Tyne 4 putter.

Ko’s equipment played a key role in her victory at the AIG Women’s Open. Her driver gave her the distance she needed to hit the par-5s in two, and her irons provided her with the accuracy she needed to hit the greens in regulation. Her wedges and putter helped her to get up and down from difficult positions, and to make crucial putts when she needed them.

Ko’s equipment is a testament to her commitment to excellence. She knows that having the right equipment can make all the difference in a tournament, and she is willing to invest in the best gear available.
