World No. 1 Nelly Korda fired a final-round 69 to win her LPGA record-tying fifth straight event ¡ª and second major title ¡ª at the Chevron Championship in The Woodlands, Texas, on Sunday.
Korda, 25, who finished with a 13-under 275 and defeated Sweden¡¯s Maia Stark by two strokes, had to play 25 holes on the final day to make up for a weather delay Saturday, but still captured her 13th LPGA Tour win.
Korda, who won her first major at the Women¡¯s PGA Championship in 2021, joined Hall of Famers Annika Sorenstam (2004-05) and Nancy Lopez (1978) as the only players in LPGA Tour history to win five straight starts. Korda also earned $1.2 million for her latest victory.
