Nelly Korda starts strong in ‘track meet’ Ford Championship | Golf Central | Golf Channel [Video]

0:00 | now to Nelly quter on the LPGA tour

0:03 | again like Sheffer looking for three

0:06 | consecutive victories and we’ll start in

0:08 | Arizona on the par 4 third this for

0:10 | birdie

0:11 | trip well this is about the link she

0:13 | made uh to win the playoff against Ryan

0:16 | o tool last week and so the putter came

0:19 | along for the ride and rich is there a

0:21 | better swing in golf I don’t know if

0:23 | there is that is just such a thing of

0:25 | beauty and it doesn’t not just pretty to

0:28 | watch Jamie Mulligan her teacher was

0:30 | texting me he said it’s really great to

0:32 | listen to too and uh there’s another

0:35 | birdie right there conditions far

0:39 | gentler than they were on Sunday in the

0:42 | cold and wind and she gutted it out and

0:45 | was actually pretty proud of herself

0:47 | having to create shots and here she had

0:50 | to get a little creative

0:52 | trip yeah uh be I mean got it to there

0:55 | but the Chip Shot H just into The Fringe

0:59 | just quite didn’t catch it the way she

1:01 | wanted just got under that one just a

1:03 | little bit and uh that would be a rare

1:07 | bogey there’s quite a shot right

1:10 | here oh yeah yeah and this is what the

1:13 | greats do I mean we just talk about

1:15 | Scotty Sheffer when they when they are

1:16 | in trouble they have the short game to

1:18 | bail them out there’s an example of it

1:20 | didn’t make the pup but still a par

1:22 | remains at four and under now at the 16

1:24 | this an eagle try

1:28 | yep and easy easy

1:33 | birdie and now at

1:38 | 18 you know Al guy Berger did swing

1:41 | Vision back in the day I could watch

1:43 | that swing she doesn’t like it but uh

1:46 | it’s still on the

1:48 | green

1:53 | and it’s the place to miss

1:55 | it

1:58 | yeah eag had a lot of Eagle attempts

2:02 | yeah par five easy two

2:06 | Putt and she’s in contention once again

2:10 | in

2:14 | Arizona so that lone bogy came at the

2:16 | 11th

2:18 | hole the 14 greens 27 putts a day when

2:21 | the scoring average in Arizona was just

2:24 | a little bit more than

2:26 | 69 as they went off the air there were

2:29 | 20 players

2:30 | at six under or better

2:34 | so a nelly Corda at this point she

2:37 | doesn’t just Loom large as good as she

2:40 | is she lurks and the same could be said

2:43 | for Scotty Sheffer so uh we know the

2:47 | golf swing you know is the kind you

2:49 | could hang in the Lou it’s it’s that

2:50 | pretty but you know trip it takes more

2:53 | than just a pretty swing and I thought

2:55 | last weekend in those cold blustery

2:58 | conditions she showed showed something

3:00 | else what was

3:01 | it well I mean she she W ugly I mean she

3:04 | Boi three of her last four holes uh to

3:07 | end up getting into a playoff and you

3:10 | know the last couple of years the last

3:13 | two years she didn’t win last year at

3:14 | all she had a lot of collapses late with

3:17 | contention she was in contention and had

3:19 | chances and ultimately didn’t get it

3:21 | done this is kind of a turnaround for

3:23 | her I think it now knows that okay if I

3:26 | make those mistakes I still can get

3:28 | through it when somebody that talented

3:30 | has that kind of win I think it does

3:32 | great things for him in a couple of

3:33 | different ways again that feeling of you

3:35 | don’t have to play perfect and you can

3:37 | still beat everybody that you play

3:39 | against but you go back to that that

3:41 | four- win season she had in 2021

3:44 | including a major championship we

3:45 | thought okay now we’re going to see her

3:47 | roll out year after year win a major a

3:50 | year kind of get on that kind of run and

3:53 | it looked like that at times that she

3:56 | was bothered a little bit late in

3:58 | tournaments she wasn’t getting the

3:59 | things done and I think last week was

4:02 | going to be the turning point where

4:03 | we’re going to see her from now on be

4:05 | able to weather that storm even if it

4:07 | comes late she’s going to be able to do

4:09 | it and still uh be triumphant at the end

4:12 | this is going to be a track meate this

4:14 | week so it’s it’s birdie ball all the

4:16 | way and I think that with her power and

4:18 | her grace uh I mean that’s the other

4:20 | thing that she’s got she’s got tons of

4:22 | power and she’s very accurate and again

4:25 | when you throw in a great short game

4:27 | it’s like Scotty Sheffer I mean it’s

4:28 | almost not a fair fight when she’s on

4:30 | her game and has that kind of confidence

4:32 | so I think Nelly Corda no matter what

4:34 | happens this week I think she is poised

4:37 | to have that kind of major season and

4:39 | follow it up with like I said being in

4:41 | contention and all of them having

4:43 | chances because her game transcends

4:45 | every type of venue that the ladies will

4:48 | face this

4:52 | year
