LPGA TOUR: CME GROUP TOUR CHAMPIONSHIP
The top 60 players on the year-long Race to the CME Globe standings have qualified for the CME Group Tour Championship this week at Tiburon Golf Club in Naples, Fla. Nelly Korda won her seventh event of the 2024 season this past weekend at The Annika, birdieing five consecutive holes on the back nine of Sunday’s final round to win by three shots. Her seven wins put her in rare company, joining Kathy Whitworth, Nancy Lopez and Beth Daniel as the only Americans since 1970 with seven or more wins in a single season.
Golf Central studio coverage will be on-site this week at the CME Group Tour Championship, providing live pre- and post-round coverage from Tiburon Golf Club. Anna Jackson will anchor coverage alongside analysts Brandel Chamblee, Mel Reid and Paige Mackenzie, and reporter Amy Rogers.
