Nelly Korda climbed to No. 3 all-time on the LPGA’s career earnings list with her U.S. Women’s Open victory Sunday in the tournament’s first time being played at the iconic Riviera Country Club in Los Angeles.
Korda’s second consecutive major championship title—and fourth of her career—came with a women’s major record $2.5 million winner’s check from the tournament’s increased $12.5 million purse—the richest in women’s golf.
That vaulted the No. 1-ranked golfer’s career earnings to $21.5 million, becoming the fifth woman to surpass the $20 million mark.
Here’s where the LPGA all-time money list stands:
No. 1: Annika Sorenstam, $22.6 million
