Nelly Korda enters this week's KPMG Women's PGA Championship at Hazeltine National in Chaska, Minn., with two majors already secured in 2026. A victory would make her the first player since Inbee Park in 2013 to win the first three majors of the season and clinch LPGA Hall of Fame induction.
Nelly Korda fired a strong second round to reach 14 under par after 36 holes at the Chevron Championship, opening a seven-shot lead in the LPGA's first major.
