The LPGA tour returned to the action in Thorsday while they begged to play in the JM Eagle La. With the first great season in the Chevron Championship. next Week this is the last time for players to really block while preparing.
Among those who showed that they are ready for Houston was Madelene Sagstrom, since he loaded the first ace of the season for an opening round of 65. That is difficult to overcome.
The world number one, Nelly Korda, ended right on Sagstrom’s heels, thought a day of 5 years at 67. While that is impressive and for his own right, what stood out in particular was that Korda the day. It was the first time he did it from the BMW 2023 Ladies Championship.
Korda’s opening round had 8 total birdies, including 4 followed by holes 3-6. That is a different level of blocked.
Finally he had six approximation shots of 105 to 130 yards away and led them to an average proximity of 7 feet, 8 inches. I’m going to the extremity and say it’s ready for Houston next week.
The JM Eagle championship continues to play on Friday and can be seen in Golf Channel from 6 to 9 pm et.
