0:12 | DAMON HACK WITH EAMON LYNCH,

0:14 | “GOLF WEEK” MAGAZINE, WHAT A

0:16 | TIME IN OUR GAME, THE BEST

0:17 | PLAYER IN THE WORLD, NELLY KORDA

0:21 | CHASING HISTORY THIS WEEK.

0:24 | >> BIG WEEK FOR A LOT OF FOLKS.

0:26 | NELLY GOING FOR A HALF A DOZEN

0:28 | IS THE BIGGEST STORY IN GOLF.

0:30 | A LOT OF PEOPLE GATHERED AT

0:32 | QUAIL HOLLOW FOR THE

0:33 | CHAMPIONSHIP WHO NEED TO NEED A

0:37 | LITTLE NELLY KORDA THEMSELVES.

0:39 | A LOT OF GUYS ARE LOOKING FOR

0:41 | THE SECOND MEN’S MAJOR NEXT

0:44 | >> GATHERED, THERE WAS A

0:46 | GATHERING LAST NIGHT IN NEW YORK

0:47 | DID YOU SEE IT?

0:49 | NELLY KORDA AT THE EXCLUSIVE MET

0:51 | GALA, AT THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM

0:53 | OF ART IN NEW YORK CITY.

0:54 | THE THEME WAS “SLEEPING

0:57 | BEAUTY: REAWAKENING FASHION.”

0:58 | AND NELLY WAS WEARING OSCAR de

1:02 | la RENTA FOR THOSE KEEPING SCORE

1:03 | AT HOME.

1:05 | AND WE’RE LOOKING AT A

1:07 | >> WE ARE.

1:08 | THIS IS A CROSSOVER MOMENT IN

1:11 | TERM OF WOMEN’S GOLF.

1:12 | THIS IS BY FAR THE BIGGEST

1:13 | NIGHT, ONE OF THE BIGGEST NIGHTS

1:15 | IN NEW YORK CITY, THE CITY OF

1:17 | BIG NIGHTS, THIS IS THE BIGGEST

1:18 | NIGHT IN FASHION AND NELLY KORDA

1:20 | GOT A LOT OF PEOPLE TALKING LAST

1:21 | NIGHT.

1:22 | >> DOING IT OFF THE COURSE AND

1:23 | ON THE COURSE AS WELL.

1:24 | INSIDE THE ROPES, SHE’S THE

1:25 | THIRD PLAYER IN LPGA TOUR

1:27 | HISTORY TO WIN FIVE STRAIGHT

1:28 | THIS WEEK, SHE CAN BECOME THE

1:30 | FIRST IN HISTORY TO WIN SIX IN A

1:32 | ROW, BREAK AWAY FROM NANCY LOPEZ

1:34 | AND ANNIKA SORENSTAM.

1:35 | >> THE NUMBERS DON’T LIE.

1:37 | IF YOU WANT TO SEE A PICTURE OF

1:39 | DOMINANCE ON THE LPGA TOUR, LOOK

1:41 | AT NELLY KORDA’S RANKS ON TOUR

1:43 | THIS YEAR.

1:44 | BASICALLY EVERY SINGLE CATEGORY

1:46 | THAT MATTERS.

1:48 | SHE IS THE NUMBER ONE PLAYER ON

1:49 | THE LPGA TOUR, WHICH IS WHY SHE

1:51 | IS ALSO THE DOMINANT NUMBER ONE

1:54 | PLAYER IN THE WORLD, SO I GUESS

1:55 | MY QUESTION TO YOU, DAMON, IS

1:59 | BET AGAINST NELLY KORDA THIS

2:01 | WEEK AT THE COGNIZANT FOUNDERS

2:04 | SHE HAS THE STAR-MAKING POWER,

2:06 | THE GAME, EVERYTHING WORKING AND

2:07 | I WANT TO GO BACK TO THIS MET

2:09 | GALA FOR A MOMENT.

2:10 | THAT PHOTO THAT WE SAW, THE

2:12 | START OF THE SHOW, IN THE OSCAR

2:16 | de la RENTA HAS BEEN VIEWED MORE

2:17 | THAN A MILLION TIMES ON X.

2:19 | WE HAVE ASKED FOR HER TO BE MORE

2:22 | AVAILABLE, UP FRONT, VISIBLE,

2:24 | EMBRACING MOMENTS LIKE THIS,

2:25 | WELL, LAST NIGHT, WITH THE LIKES

2:27 | OF THE WILLIAMS SISTERS AND

2:31 | LEWIS HAMILTON AND ANKLE REESE,

2:33 | THE BIGGEST NAME IN SPORTS,

2:34 | THAT’S WHERE SHE BLONGZ.

2:35 | SHE LOOKS MORE COMFORTABLE THAN

2:38 | MAYBE WE THOUGHT SHE WOULD IN

2:39 | THIS TYPE OF ENVIRONMENT.

2:40 | >> THERE ARE GOING TO BE

2:42 | OPPORTUNITIES AND MARKETING

2:43 | OPPORTUNITIES, I THINK, THAT

2:44 | NELLY KORDA IS GOING TO WANT TO

2:46 | EMBRACE.

2:47 | THIS WOULD BE AN OBVIOUS ONE.

2:49 | LET ‘S NOT OVERLOOK THE FACT OF

2:52 | WHERE SHE’S AT THE MET GALA,

2:54 | WHAT SHE’S DOING IN HER CHOSEN

2:56 | WHAT SHE’S DOING IS REMARKABLE,

2:58 | NOT JUST IN THE FACT SHE’S WON

2:59 | FIVE IN A ROW.

3:01 | THAT’S NOT TO BE UNDERESTIMATED.

3:02 | HOW SHE HAS WON FIVE IN A ROW.

3:04 | THIS STARTED IN THE VERY FIRST

3:05 | TERM, THE LPGA DRIVE ON, SHE WAS

3:07 | THREE STROKES BACK OF LYDIA KO,

3:09 | THROUGH 16 HOLES IN THE FINAL

3:11 | ROUND AND FINISHED EAGLE BIRDIE

3:12 | TO FORCE A PLAYOFF AND WINS THE

3:14 | SHE WENT ON AND WON IN LOUSY

3:17 | WEATHER IN DIFFERENT FORMATS, A

3:19 | MATCH PLAY TOURNAMENT OUT IN

3:20 | VEGAS AS WELL.

3:24 | THEY BEAT LEONA MAGUIRE AND THEN

3:25 | COMES AND WINS A MAJOR UNDER THE

3:30 | MOST EXTREME SCRUTINY POSSIBLE.

3:31 | SHE TOOK A WEEK OFF RATHER THAN

3:33 | PLAY THE L.A. EVENT RIGHT AFTER

3:34 | THE CHEVRON.

3:35 | IT IS GOING TO BE INTERESTING TO

3:37 | SEE IF SHE’S KIND OF, YOU KNOW,

3:39 | DETOXED A LITTLE BIT FROM THAT

3:40 | KIND OF SCRUTINY.

3:42 | AND PRESSURE, BUT IT IS NOT AS

3:43 | THOUGH TAKING TIME OFF HAS

3:44 | WORKED AGAINST HER.

3:45 | SHE HAD A SEVEN-WEEK LAYOFF

3:47 | DURING THE COURSE OF THE SEASON

3:49 | AND STILL HAVING THIS DOMINANT

3:50 | PERFORMANCE THAT WE’RE SEEING.

3:51 | IT REALLY IS REMARKABLE FOR THE

3:54 | VARIETY OF THE MANNER IN WHICH

3:55 | SHE HAS ACTUALLY WON

3:57 | >> I THINK SHE’S A TOUGHER

4:00 | PERSON, MORE WELL ROUNDED NOW,

4:02 | BECAUSE OF SOME OF THE THINGS

4:04 | SHE HAS LOST, INCLUDING TIME.

4:07 | AND THE LOSS FOR A MOMENT AND

4:08 | LONGER THAN A MOMENT, MONTHS, OF

4:10 | GOOD HEALTH, WHEN SHE HAD THAT

4:12 | BLOOD CLOT FOLLOWING WINNING AN

4:13 | OLYMPIC GOLD MEDAL, WINNING FOUR

4:15 | OTHER TIMES IN 2021 AS SHE DID.

4:18 | IT LOOKED LIKE THERE WAS NO ONE

4:20 | WHO COULD STOP HER OUTSIDE OF

4:23 | SHE HAS COME BACK, NELLY, ON THE

4:26 | OTHER SIDE OF SOME SCARY

4:27 | FRIGHTENING MOMENTS.

4:28 | THE PICTURES WERE DIFFERENT A

4:29 | FEW YEARS AGO.

4:30 | THEY WEREN’T IN A GOWN AT THE

4:32 | MET GALA, IT WAS HER IN A

4:33 | HOSPITAL BED, AND SAYING, I’M

4:35 | THANKFUL FOR THE PRAYERS AND

4:37 | GOOD THOUGHTS, CAN’T WAIT TO GET

4:39 | BACK OUT THERE AND COMPETING.

4:40 | SHE HAS A GREAT GAME.

4:42 | SHE HAS EARNED PERSPECTIVE AS

4:43 | >> HARD EARNED PERSPECTIVE.

4:45 | AND IN TERMS OF THE RARIFIED ERA

4:48 | SHE FINDS HERSELF NOW IN, WE

4:50 | HAVE SEEN GREAT WINNING STREAKS

4:51 | IN THE PAST IN THIS GAME, BYRON

4:53 | NELSON, 11 IN A ROW, HOGAN HAD

4:56 | 6, BUT IN THE MODERN ERA, LET’S

4:57 | START WITH NANCY LOPEZ, 1978,

5:00 | FIVE IN A ROW, SHE FINISHED TIED

5:02 | 13th IN TRYING TO GET THAT SIXTH

5:04 | ANNIKA, FIVE IN A ROW, IN 2005,

5:08 | FINISHED TIED 12th.

5:09 | TIGER DID IT THREE TIMES WITH

5:11 | WINNING STREAKS.

5:12 | HE HAD SEVEN IN A ROW, WHICH

5:13 | ENDED WITH THE MATCH PLAY WHEN

5:16 | ROUND OF 16.

5:17 | AND THEN HE HAD SIX IN A ROW

5:21 | FIVE IN A ROW IN ’07-’08.

5:25 | BOTH CAME CLOSE.

5:26 | SECOND AT THE BUICK AND FIFTH IN

5:27 | THE WGC.

5:28 | IT IS EXTRAORDINARILY DIFFICULT

5:30 | TO KEEP — DIFFICULT TO GET TO A

5:32 | WIN STREAK AT THIS POINT.

5:33 | IT IS EVEN MORE DIFFICULT TO

5:35 | KEEP IT MOVING.

5:36 | >> BUT IN THIS SCENARIO, WE

5:38 | ASKED FOR MORE FROM NELLY, I

5:40 | THINK HER FLAT LINE PERSONALITY

5:42 | THAT WE SEE SOMETIMES HER

5:44 | RETICENCE AT TIMES TO BE IN THE

5:46 | SPOTLIGHT, I THINK IT HELPS HER

5:48 | IN THE MIDST OF CHASING HISTORY.

5:50 | SHE COMES FROM A SUPREMELY

5:52 | ATHLETIC FAMILY OF, YOU KNOW,

5:55 | OLYMPIANS AND TENNIS GRAND SLAM

5:57 | COMPETITORS IN BROTHER AND

5:59 | CHAMPION AND FATHER.

6:00 | THIS WILL BE, IN TERMS OF THE

6:02 | PRESSURE OF COMPETITION, I THINK

6:04 | HER MAKEUP IS PERFECT IN CHASING

6:08 | HISTORY, IN TERMS OF KNOWING

6:09 | WHAT IT IS LIKE, HAVING BEEN

6:10 | AROUND THE DINNER TABLE AT THE

6:12 | KORDAS, THIS IS NOTHING NEW FOR

6:14 | THIS FAMILY IN TERMS OF CHASING

6:16 | HIGH ACHIEVEMENT.

6:17 | >> LET’S ALSO POINT OUT, WE TALK

6:19 | ABOUT NELLY’S RETICENCE AND SHE

6:21 | TALKED ABOUT THAT HERSELF, BUT

6:23 | WHEN SHE’S AT A TOURNAMENT, SHE

6:25 | MAKES HER OBLIGATIONS, WE WOULD

6:26 | LIKE TO SEE HER MORE OFTEN, BUT

6:28 | SHE MAKES HER OBLIGATIONS AT THE

6:30 | TOURNAMENT.

6:31 | YOU KNOW WHO ELSE DID THAT?

6:32 | TIGER WOODS.

6:33 | HE WASN’T EXACTLY PUTTING

6:34 | HIMSELF OUT THERE ON THE OFF

6:36 | AND FEELING AS THOUGH HE HAD TO

6:38 | SELL THE PRODUCT, THE PRODUCT

6:39 | WAS BUILT AROUND TIGER.

6:41 | TIGER DID NOT BUILD THE PRODUCT.

6:43 | AND IN TERMS OF WHERE THE PGA

6:45 | MARKETED ITSELF, THE PGA TOUR

6:47 | DURING TIGER’S PEAK YEARS.

6:49 | THEY ATTACHED THEMSELVES TO THIS

6:51 | LUMINOUS PRESENCE.

6:53 | AND THE LPGA PROBABLY WILL BE

6:55 | PLANNING ON DOING THE SAME WITH

6:56 | NELLY KORDA.

6:57 | SHE IS GREAT, THE MORE SHE WANTS

6:59 | TO EMBRACE THAT PUBLIC PERSONA

7:00 | AND MARKETING THE PRODUCT.

7:02 | I’M ALL FOR THAT.
