Is Nelly Korda playing in the KPMG Women's PGA Championship 2024? LPGA star's schedule explored

The 2024 LPGA season has been nothing short of historic for Nelly Korda. This year, Korda managed to win five consecutive starts on the tour. However, in recent times, it can be said that the 25-year-old is struggling as she failed to make the cut in the last two events she played on the LPGA Tour.

Now that these tournaments have passed, there is a question of whether Nelly Korda will play in the upcoming KPMG Women's PGA Championship. The answer to the question is yes. Golf fans will be able to see the World No. 1 play at the prestigious event.

For those unaware, the KPMG PGA Championship is set to begin on June 20, and will end on June 23. The tournament will take place at the Sahalee Country Club, which is famous for hosting the 1998 PGA Championship. The purse for this year's edition of the KPMG PGA Championship is a staggering $10,000,000.

Apart from Nelly Korda, the tournament at the Sahalee Country Club will also feature the likes of Brooke Henderson, Lexi Thompson, Lydia Ko, and Rose Zhang. While many top-notch women golfers will play at the event, all eyes will be on Korda and Henderson since they won previously in 2021 and 2016, respectively.
