Nelly Korda has brought the curtain down on another fantastic season, one that she will remember for quite some time.
Korda is proud of her LPGA Tour season, with the world number one having clinched seven titles, including five in a row.
She is now a 15-time LPGA Tour winner, and boasts two major championship wins after clinching the Chevron Championship this year.
Fellow star Caitlin Clark was seemingly a good-luck charm for Korda, with the pair having played together at The ANNIKA pro-ambefore the latter went on to win the event.
Clark named Korda in her dream golf group, with the pair having helped take women’s sports to another level in recent times.

It has, however, now suffered a major loss, with Korda’s compatriot Lexi Thompson set to say goodbye to her full-time LPGA Tour career.
