Nelly Korda Embracing Patience Ahead of U.S. Women’s Open Challenge
World No. 1 Nelly Korda is approaching this year’s U.S. Women’s Open at Erin Hills with a renewed focus on patience, a quality she’s leaned on during a season that has yet to yield a victory. Despite her dominance in 2023, including a stretch where she won six of seven events, Korda has yet to replicate that success this year. The U.S. Women’s Open, in particular, has been an elusive test — she’s never placed higher than eighth and has missed the cut in three of the past five appearances.
