She’s listed as the best in the world, and through the first 36 holes at the Tokyo Olympics, she’s proving it.
At just 22 years old, Korda officially ascended to the No. 1 spot in the Rolex Women’s World Golf Rankings in late June, taking over the top spot after winning her first major at the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship.
Korda is just the third American to climb to No. 1 since the rankings were introduced in 2006. Stacy Lewis was the last American to be No. 1, doing so for four weeks in 2013 and 21 weeks in 2014. Cristie Kerr was No. 1 for five weeks in 2010.
