American golfer Nelly Korda has defended her title at the Pelican Women's Championship and earned $300,000 in prize money. She shot a six-under 64 in the final round to win against Lexi Thompson, who finished second and won $186,096.
Nelly Korda put on an impressive performance in the final round, making six birdies in an 11-hole stretch. She has victoriously defended her title and has now won eight LPGA Tour events in her career.
With her victory, Nelly Korda reclaimed her World No. 1 ranking, leading behind the Thai teenager, Atthaya Thitikul. At the beginning of the year, she missed out on a few tournaments due to a blood clot and lost her title as the number-one golfer, but she has now regained it.
