Nelly Korda is back on the practice range. The world No. 1 noted on X/Twitter earlier this week that she’d been cleared by her doctor to get back to work. Korda skipped the LPGA’s fall Asian swing after revealing that she’d suffered a minor neck injury.

After helping Team USA clinch the 2024 Solheim Cup in mid-September, Korda teed it up the next week in Cincinnati at the Kroger Queen City Championship, where she tied for fifth. She hasn’t played since.

So where might fans see her next?

The field for next week’s Lotte Championship in Hawaii has closed, which means her first stop back will almost certainly be The Annika driven by Gainbridge at Pelican, where she’s a two-time winner. Korda is slated to play alongside WNBA superstar Caitlin Clark in the event’s pro-am Nov. 13 in Belleair, Florida.

After that, she’ll play in the season-ending CME Group Tour Championship, which features an $11 million purse and record $4 million first-place prize.

A six-time winner on the LPGA this season, Korda last hoisted an individual trophy in May at the Mizuho Americas Open. In August, she tied for second at the AIG Women’s British open.

While she hasn’t played enough tournament rounds this season to qualify for the Vare Trophy race for lowest scoring average, she has clinched at least a share of the LPGA Rolex Player of the Year award. She can win it outright if Ayaka Furue does not win this week in Japan. Furue would then have to win the last three remaining events on the LPGA schedule to tie Korda.

This is Korda’s first Player of the Year title.

In December, the 26-year-old will be back in action at Tiburon Golf Club for the Grant Thornton Invitational mixed team event Dec. 13-15 alongside PGA Tour player Tony Finau.

The following week, she’ll once again team up with her father, Petr, at the PNC Championship in Orlando, Florida.
