Nelly Korda made bogey on her final two holes Sunday to fall into a playoff and atoned for it quickly, making a 12-foot birdie putt to beat Ryann O'Toole in the Fir Hills Seri Pak Championship in California to return to No. 1 in the world.
made bogey on her final two holes Sunday to fall into a playoff and atoned for it quickly, making a 12-foot birdie putt to beat Ryann O'Toole in the Fir Hills Seri Pak Championship to return to No. 1 in the world.
Korda decided to skip the entire Asia swing, giving her nearly two months off. She felt rusty at the start and got sharper as the week went on. It helped that her swing coach, Jamie Mulligan, works down the road at Virginia Country Club in Long Beach and was able to work with her after each round. Making it tougher were brutal conditions of wind and cold. O'Toole was wearing ear muffs when she holed her clutch putt at the end of regulation."The weekend was brutal," she said."It's also the beauty of the game. It's fun to be able to play in these conditions and be a little more artistic."
