The LPGA Tour announced Monday that world No. 1 Nelly Korda has officially claimed the 2024 Rolex Player of the Year award with three events still remaining in the season. Only Ayaka Furue had an opportunity to catch the American down the stretch, but when she did not win the TOTO Japan Classic last weekend, Korda secured the honors.

Despite not playing in any of the LPGA's fall Southeast Asia swing due to a neck injury, World No. 1 Nelly Korda still secured the LPGA's points-based Player of the Year award Sunday with three tournaments remaining on the schedule.
