Nelly Korda Clinches Second LPGA Player of the Year Award
Korda’s four-win season has put her one point short of the LPGA Hall of Fame threshold.
Nelly Korda has clinched the 2026 Rolex Player of the Year award, winning the LPGA honor for the second time.
The LPGA announced the result November 3, after the entry deadline for The ANNIKA confirmed that her remaining challengers could no longer pass her in the points race.
Korda has won four tournaments this season. Her previous Player of the Year award came in 2024.
The award gives Korda her 26th point toward the LPGA Hall of Fame, one short of the 27-point threshold. An official tour win is worth one point and a major championship two.
Korda is scheduled to receive the award November 17 during the week of the CME Group Tour Championship.
