Nelly Korda made five consecutive birdies on the back nine Sunday to win her seventh LPGA event of the year.

Korda, who started the final round at The Annika trailing Charley Hull, was 2 over on the day through 10 holes at Pelican Golf Club, two off the pace.

She then birdied Nos. 11-15 to create a two-shot advantage with three holes to play. Korda parred in for a 3-under 67 and a three-shot triumph.

The victory was Korda’s seventh of the season and came in her first start in nearly two months after she missed the full Asia swing because of a minor neck injury.

One event remains on the 2024 LPGA schedule, the CME Group Tour Championship, where $4 million will go to the winner.
