Nelly Korda will be back in action this week for the Ford Championship 2025. The LPGA is returning after a short break, and the next event on the schedule will take place at Whirlwind Golf Club in Chandler, Arizona, from Thursday, March 27, to Sunday, March 30.

Korda is the reigning champion and the World No. 1 golfer, but she isn’t the favorite this week, according to oddsmakers. As per Bet360, she is listed at 17/2, trailing Jeeno Thitikul in the odds to successfully defend her title.

While Nelly Korda had a blistering start to 2024, this season has been cold compared to the benchmark she set last year. She has made two starts so far, posting top-seven finishes in both, but she has yet to claim a title. She also finished as the runner-up at the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions.

Thitikul, on the other hand, has started the season strong, with three consecutive top-12 finishes, including a T2 at the HSBC Women’s World Championship. Lydia Ko, who is playing her first event since her Singapore victory, is another top contender this week.
