Nelly Korda commits to two LPGA events in the US: Schedule explored


Nelly Korda has committed to two LPGA events in the USA swing and is all set to return after a month. The star golfer will be returning to the golf course with the Fortinet Founders Cup in March.

Nelly Korda played the season opener, the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions, and ended her title drought. However, she decided to take a break after that and hasn’t competed since.

Nelly Korda will be seen in action at the Fortinet Founders Cup, which will be played from March 19 to 22 at Sharon Heights Golf & Country Club in Menlo Park, California. She has also committed to the Ford Championship, which is scheduled to take place from March 26 to 29 at Whirlwind Golf Club’s Cattail Course in Chandler, Arizona.

Besides Korda, World No. 1 Jeeno Thitikul will compete in both events, but World No. 3 Charley Hull will compete only at the Ford Championship.

The LPGA season began with the HGV Tournament of Champions at Lake Nona Golf & Country Club in Orlando, Florida. Korda fired 68, 71, and 64 in the shortened 54-hole event to claim her 16th LPGA title and her first since the ANNIKA in 2024.

This week, the LPGA is at Sentosa Golf Club’s Tanjong Course for the HSBC Women’s World Championship. While Korda isn’t playing this week, the field boasts top names like Thitikul, Hull, and Lydia Ko in action.

Thitikul is entering the week after winning the Honda LPGA Thailand, while Ko is looking to defend her title. Hull is making her LPGA season debut after winning the PIF Saudi Ladies International earlier this month.
