Nelly Korda poses with the trophy after winning the Pelican Women’s Championship in a playoff at Pelican Golf Club on Sunday, Nov. 14, 2021 (November 15 in Manila) in Belleair, Florida. 1 Nelly Korda shook off a triple bogey at the penultimate hole, closing regulation with a birdie and winning the LPGA Pelican Championship with a birdie at the first hole of a four-way playoff on Sunday (Monday in Manila). Olympic gold medalist Korda notched her fourth LPGA Tour victory of the season, but in a way that no one saw coming. After all the late drama, Korda brought the playoff to a swift conclusion with a 12-foot birdie at the first hole of sudden death — the 18th. Ko and Kim might have been surprised to find themselves in the playoff given the early dominance of Korda and Thompson.
