HOUSTON \u2014 Nelly Korda\u2019s major championship season<\/a> opened with stress, and with everyone holding their breath.<\/p>\n

Starting on the par-4 10th at Memorial Park, Korda faced a six-foot sliding putt for par. Miss it, and the World No. 2 would start the Chevron Championship<\/a> with an inauspicious bogey and fall behind the eight-ball out of the gates, leaving everyone wondering if a repeat of a shaky 2025 major season was on deck. She took a deep breath and calmly rolled it in the heart. Another seven-foot par putt awaited her on her second hole of the day, the par-3 11th, and once again Korda answered the bell.<\/p>\n

Just as the LPGA needed her to. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s unfair to put the tour on Korda\u2019s shoulders. But she\u2019s the biggest star in the women\u2019s game and as the LPGA continues to chase inroads with new audiences, it needs its biggest needle to be a draw on its biggest weeks.<\/p>\n

The LPGA needed Nelly Korda to provide electricity<\/a> this week at Memorial Park. After two gritty par saves to start her championship, Nelly Korda delivered.<\/p>\n

\n<\/section>\n

She birdied No. 12 and No. 16 to turn in 2-under. Then, she hit the gas. Korda stuffed a wedge into the par-5 first to get to 3 under and then hit a 5 iron on the par-3 second hole to five feet for another birdie.<\/p>\n

\u201cI hit that one good,\u201d a beaming Korda said after her round. \u201cThose are the shots that you\u2019re like, oh, God, I love golf.\u201d <\/p>\n

Another birdie followed at the third to get Korda into a tie for the early lead. After three straight pars, Korda arrived at the par-3 7th hole and hit a towering 6 iron to five feet for another birdie. A final birdie at the par-5 8th meant Korda signed for an opening round of 7 under and a two-shot lead. It was the second-lowest opening round in a major of Korda\u2019s career and her first bogey-free round in a major since the second round of the 2024 AIG Women\u2019s Open.<\/p>\n

A year ago, Korda was going through the early part of a \u201cweird\u201d and winless 2025 season<\/a>. It was a campaign that saw her truly contend at only one of the five majors. It was frustrating but also served as a reminder for Korda that she already has all she needs<\/a>. She has long held the key to her own success and has the support system around her to keep her stable in the downturns that naturally arrive in the world of professional golf. <\/p>\n

\u201cI would say that you receive a lot more criticism when you\u2019re on top of the game, and having a tight-knit circle, you\u2019re very grateful for the people you have around,\u201d Korda said at last year\u2019s CME Group Tour Championship. \u201cThe circle does get a little smaller, but I think I have an amazing circle. I would say I\u2019m extremely, extremely lucky for the people that I have around me. At the end of the day, the life that we live and performing in front of people, it is super important to have that stability in your life.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Top amateur Kiara Romero\u2019s star potential showed in unexpected moments at Chevron<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

That circle, and the consistency in it, have helped Nelly Korda find Nelly Korda so far this year. After constantly finishing on the wrong side of golf\u2019s \u201cfine line\u201d in 2025, Korda got back to work. She refined her schedule, kept the pedal down practicing with her longtime coach David Whelan in the offseason, made sure her body was ready for the grind of another season and kept her circle the same. <\/p>\n

All of that has seen Korda start the year with a win at the weather-shortened Tournament of Champions<\/a>, followed by three straight runner-up finishes<\/a> heading into the year\u2019s first major. Her game and mind are where they need to be.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith golf, I feel like you can put in the work,\u201d Korda said on Tuesday before the tournament. \u201cLike I always say, control what you can control, and am I working hard? Am I putting in the effort every single day mentally and physically? Other than that, I can\u2019t control anything. I can\u2019t control the weather. I can\u2019t control what other girls do, what other girls shoot. I can\u2019t control if I hit a good shot, and I\u2019m in a divot.<\/p>\n

\u201cLike there are so many things on this game that you just can\u2019t control. I try to just take that all out of my mind and be like, Okay, I am going to focus on what I can control, and that\u2019s it.\u201d <\/p>\n

Nelly Korda controlled all she could to be ready for this week. She took last week off to work more with Whelan and brought her putting coach David Angelotti out to Houston for the week. She played 18 holes on Monday and then putted on wet greens on Tuesday once the thunderstorms had passed. She saw a long, demanding golf course that played to her strengths. All that was vital to what transpired Thursday.<\/p>\n

But Nelly Korda is also free and loose. The frustrations of last year are flushed. She\u2019s opened the season on a tear and is now already two shots ahead on a course she just ripped apart in the opening 18 holes. <\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m just happy,\u201d Korda said after her round, about the different feelings this year brings before praising every member of her team, from Whelan to longtime caddie Jason McDede. \u201cI think just there is a comfort and happiness inside me that makes me happy on the golf course.\u201d<\/p>\n

A free and easy Nelly Korda has been unleashed this week in Houston. That\u2019s bad news for the rest of the field \u2014 but exactly what the LPGA needed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
