Nelly Korda’s Unfortunate 12th Hole Misstep: Can She Overcome the Setback to Win at U.S. Women’s Open?

As the No. 1 player in the world, Nelly Korda was a heavy favorite heading into the 2024 U.S. Women’s Open at Lancaster Country Club in Pennsylvania. She had been on a winning streak, with six victories in her last seven starts, including a major championship win.

However, her week took a turn for the worse after just three holes. Starting on the back nine, Korda began with a bogey and was already 1 over when she got to the par-3 12th hole. Her tee shot ended up in a bunker, and things went downhill from there. Her bunker shot went over the green and into the water, leading to a series of unfortunate shots that resulted in a septuple-bogey 10.

Korda now faces an uphill battle to make the cut and play over the next 33 holes to reach the weekend rounds. Her struggles on the 12th hole were difficult to watch, and it seems like her chances of contending in the tournament have been severely impacted by this early setback. Despite her rough start, Korda remains determined to bounce back and give it her all on the course.
