Nelly Korda seizes 2
It didn’t take Nelly Korda long to put another tournament within her grasp.
Korda shot a 7-under 65 Saturday and will take a two-stroke lead over Hannah Green into the final round of the Mizuho Americas Open in a bid to win for the sixth time in her last seven events on the LPGA Tour.
“Yeah, I think I’ve always had this mentality,” Korda said of putting the pedal to metal every time she plays. “I’ve always given it a 100%. I’ve looked up to great athletes like (Rafeal) Nadal and Roger Federer, which the blend of the two I hope I have. The grace that Federer has and the fight that Nadal has.
“So just having people that I’ve looked up to and I’ve seen and I’ve admired, I hope that’s something I carry on to the golf course,” the world’s No. 1-ranked player added.
After seeing Rose Zhang snap her tour record-tying five tournament winning streak in the Cognizant Founders Cup last week, Korda has gotten better every round in posting a three-round 13-under 203 total at scenic Liberty National at Jersey City, New Jersey. She started with a 70 and followed that with a 68 and now the 65.
