Analysis: Golf has two dominant forces in Scheffler and Korda. It didn’t happen overnight

Associated Press  

HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C. — Golf went a decade without being able to identify a dominant player. That hasn’t happened since Tiger Woods doubled the world ranking lead over Phil Mickelson toward the end of 2009. Nelly Korda went through 2023 without winning on the LPGA Tour — her only title was the Aramco Series in London on the Ladies European Tour — and ended the year at No. It seemed like if a shot didn’t end up where I wanted it to, it was probably just a little gust of wind.” Korda and Scheffler will disappear now for a few weeks. “But I was never answering questions like, ‘Hey, you’ve been playing so great.’ It was more like, ‘Hey, you’ve been playing great, BUT you’ve been doing this one thing really, really bad.’” He laughed, because laughter comes easily to Scheffler.
