As the season nears its end, fans are wondering when they’ll see World No. 1 Nelly Korda back in action. The last time she graced the course was at the Kroger Queen City Championship in September, where she secured a solid T5 finish. Shortly after, the 26-year-old shared videos on Instagram, showcasing her practiced swing for the upcoming Maybank Championship, leaving fans excited for her return.
However, fate had other plans. Just as excitement was building, Korda announced her withdrawal from the LPGA events in Korea and Malaysia due to a minor neck injury. With the Maybank Championship now in the rearview mirror, the bigger question remains: will Korda return to the tournament scene before the season wraps up?
The next big event on the horizon is the TOTO Japan Classic, taking place from October 31 to November 3, 2024, in Otsu-shi, Shiga, Japan. This tournament will feature prominent names in women’s golf, including Ayaka Furue, Haeran Ryu, and Jin Young Ko, yet Korda’s name remains absent from the list yet again.
