Korda Misses Cut Again After 81 at Women’s PGA
Nelly Korda’s struggles continued at the Women’s PGA Championship as she missed the cut after carding an 81 in the second round. The 23-year-old American, who has been battling injuries this season, has now missed the cut in four of her last five starts.
Korda opened with a 72 on Thursday, but her second round was a disaster. She made seven bogeys and a double bogey to finish well outside the cutline.
“It was a tough day,” Korda said. “I just couldn’t make any putts. I’m really disappointed to miss the cut, but I’m going to try to learn from this and come back stronger.”
Korda’s missed cut is a major setback in her bid to qualify for the Tokyo Olympics. She is currently ranked 15th in the world, but only the top 15 players in the world will qualify for the Games.
