Nelly Korda won her second straight LPGA event, her second win in two weeks, and her sixth overall win – along with her sister Jessica – when she took home the title at the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship at the Atlanta Athletic Club.
Korda reached new heights with victory when she won her first career major. She also rose to # 1 on the Rolex rankings – the first American woman in seven years – and has taken the top spot in the CME Group rankings. She is the first American woman to have won a major in almost three years.
The $ 4.5 million prize pool was a record for the tournament. Korda also takes home a check for first place for $ 675,000 for the win. See the full payout list below. You can also see LPGA’s all-time money list here.
