The golf world will have to wait a little longer to see whether Nelly Korda can make history with a sixth consecutive LPGA Tour win, as the top-ranked player in the world withdrew from the JM Eagle LA Championship in Los Angeles due to fatigue.
Korda announced that she's pulling out of the LPGA tournament on Monday, which is scheduled to start on Thursday at Wilshire Country Club.
'It was not an easy decision,' the 25-year-old said in a statement online.
'After the unbelievable week at The Chevron and grinding through the mental and physical challenges of four events in the past five weeks, I am definitely feeling exhausted.
'With so much still to come throughout 2024, I feel I need to listen to my body and get some rest, so I can be ready for the remainder of the season.'

Korda fired a final-round 69 to win her LPGA record-tying fifth straight event - and second major title - at the Chevron Championship on Sunday in The Woodlands, Texas.
With the win, she joined Hall of Famers Annika Sorenstam (2004-05) and Nancy Lopez (1978) as the only players in LPGA Tour history to win five straight starts.
She had to play 25 holes on the final day to make up for a weather delay Saturday on her way to winning her 13th LPGA Tour event.
'I can finally breathe now,' Korda said Sunday. 'That back nine felt like the longest back nine of my entire life. It was a little bit of a grind on the back nine, but happy to get the win.'

It's unclear when the Florida native will compete next.
The Cognizant Founders Cup takes place May 9-12 in New Jersey, and the next major is the U.S. Women's Open in Pennsylvania to be held May 30-June 2.
In March 2022, Korda announced that she had a blood clot in her arm, barely two months after surpassing Stacy Lewis' record for consecutive weeks as number one in the Women's World Golf Ranking for an American.
She came back to play at the U.S. Women's Cup and returned to the top of the world ranking in November of that year.
