LPGA sensation Nelly Korda is poised to make history after clinching the prestigious Player of the Year award for 2026. The 28-year-old golfer began the year with a triumph at the Tournament of Champions and went on to win two major championships - the Chevron Championship and US Women’s Open. Korda's exceptional season has earned her the Rolex Player of the Year title, placing her just one point away from Hall of Fame induction.
Despite having only 10 years of professional experience, Korda has already achieved a remarkable feat: winning four majors and two Player of the Year awards. Her consistency this year is unparalleled, with four total wins, 10 top 10 finishes, and six consecutive events within the top two spots. As Korda aims to secure her place in golfing history, her next tournament is The ANNIKA driven by Gainbridge at Pelican in Florida, starting on November 12.
