BREAKING NEWS: Nelly Korda The tournament of champion filed by Hilton grand vacation in LPGA to…

admin January 27, 2025

The LPGA is ready to start the year-long celebration of its 75th season, and it begins Thursday with the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions at Lake Nona Golf & Country Club in Orlando.

What will World No. 1 Nelly Korda do for an encore after winning seven times in 2024? How can Lydia Ko top last season after winning the AIG Women’s Open—one of three victories—and the gold medal at the Paris Olympics? That secured her spot in the LPGA Hall of Fame, too. She’ll surely find a way.

No doubt there will be milestones and breakthroughs, successes and struggles, new names making a splash and veterans doing veteran things. We can’t wait to witness it all, especially from the players who make this list as ones we know we’re watching in 2025.

Korda won SEVEN times in 2024, including a record-tying five in a row. It all began when she won the LPGA Drive On Championship last February, the run also including the Chevron Championship, her second career major title. For all the early dominance, the year wasn’t without a few stumbles, however, most notably missing cuts in back-to-back majors. Nobody’s perfect, and injuries also crept into the mix, but Korda came back strong by year’s end to win Rolex Player of the Year among other hardware. Oh, and she got to play with Caitlin Clark in The Annika. Needless to say, she seems positioned well to deliver an solid encore in 2025.

It was another show-stopping year for Ko. She had three wins, including the AIG Women’s Open (her third career major), and she won gold at the Paris Olympics. That win gave her the 27th point needed to qualify for the LPGA Hall of Fame. She became the youngest player in history to qualify and was inducted in November. She kicks off the season by attempting to successfully defend her title at the Tournament of Champions.
