It was cold in Florida, but Nelly Korda's game was hot on Saturday during a third round that ultimately won her a first tournament title in more than a year. The former World No. 1 shot eight-under 64 on a chilly, windy day at the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions that Golf Channel noted was more than nine shots lower than the field scoring average.
Temps were in the mid-20s on Sunday and tee times were pushed back so far that it was clear the final round would not be compelted. With a similar forecast on Monday, tournament officials cancelled the final round altogether.
After lighting up the tour in 2024, Korda was winless in 2025 and now shows the world that she's ready to prove her form from two years ago is back. She won $315,000 from the overall $2.1 million purse at Lake Nona Golf and Country Club in Orlando. Amy Yang was second and Brooke Henderson was third.
There was a stacked field for the season-opener that included 16 of the top 25 players in the world. Leading that group was Jenno Thitikul (1), Korda (2), Miyu Yamashita (4), Charley Hull (5) and Lydia Ko (6). Thitikul finished in ninth place.
“I feel like this week is kind of a warm-up week for us but it’s not warm for the weather,” Thitikul said earlier in the week, well before the extreme cold came.
The LPGA is now off for a couple weeks before it heads to Asia for events in Thailand, Singapore and China.
