Korda wins in Taiwan for maiden LPGA crown
Print Edition
American Nelly Korda shot a flawless 4-under-par 68 in the final round to win her maiden LPGA title by two strokes at the Swinging Skirts Taiwan Championship yesterday.
The 20-year-old daughter of former Australian Open tennis champion Petr Korda shared the overnight lead with local hope Hsu Wei-ling but two birdies and an eagle were enough to win her the title on 13-under 275. With elder sister and five-time LPGA winner Jessica watching in tears from her home in Florida, Korda completed her round before being showered in sparkling wine by her fellow players to celebrate her breakthrough. Australia鈥檚 world No. 5 Minjee Lee birdied her last two holes for a 6-under 66 and second place on 11-under. To the disappointment of the crowd at the Ta Shee Golf and Country Club in Taoyuan, Hsu only managed a final-round 74 for a share of sixth with New Zealander Lydia Ko.
