During the second round of the Women's British Open at St. Andrews, World No. 1 Nelly Korda showcased her exceptional skills by shooting a 4-under 68, securing a three-stroke lead in the clubhouse. Korda's flawless performance on the challenging Old Course, coupled with strategic birdies at key holes, propelled her to 8 under for the tournament.
Playing alongside England's Charley Hull and defending champion Lilia Vu, Korda demonstrated her dominance in the women's game. Hull, who started the day as the overnight leader, managed to maintain her position with an even-par round, tying with Vu for second place.
Korda's stellar performance at the Women's British Open adds to her impressive year, which includes a major victory at the Chevron Championship in April. With a total of six wins in 2024, Korda has solidified her status as the top player in women's golf.
The marquee group comprising Korda, Vu, and Hull has delivered an exciting display of talent and competitiveness over the first two rounds of the tournament. As the competition intensifies, all eyes will be on Korda as she aims for her second major title of the year.
