Nelly Korda is currently playing golf at a level that feels almost unreal. Fresh off her victory at the Chevron Championship, the LPGA Tour star showed no signs of letting up at the Mayakoba event in Mexico. The result? More of the same dominance that has made her the most formidable force in women's golf right now.
Korda put on another masterclass, finishing four strokes ahead of runner-up Arpichaya Yubol to claim her 18th career win. This victory also marked her third title of the season, bringing her ever closer to LPGA Hall of Fame eligibility. With 23 points now in the books, she needs just four more to reach the required 27.
What makes this run truly special is the sheer consistency. The LPGA Tour noted a remarkable stat: Korda has more wins this season than the number of players who have actually finished ahead of her in events. Let that sink in. She has three victories, and only two players—Hyo Joo Kim (twice) and Lauren Coughlin—have managed to outplay her in a tournament so far this year.
Here's a quick look at her 2025 season results:
• Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions: Win
• Ford Championship presented by Wild Horse Pass: 2nd place
This latest win was especially impressive given the field. With the tournament taking place just a week after a major championship, many top players opted to rest. Beth Ann Nichols reported that Korda was the only top-10 player in the world competing in Mexico. That didn't matter one bit.
Right now, it's Nelly Korda's world. Everyone else is just playing in it. Whether you're a casual fan or a dedicated golfer, watching her dominate is a reminder of what peak performance looks like—and a great excuse to gear up for your own rounds in style.
