World number one Nelly Korda has claimed her second points-based LPGA player-of-the-year award.

The 28-year-old won four times this year, including the first two majors - The Chevron Championship and the US Women's Open at Riviera.

The American, who won the award in 2024, is one victory away from qualifying for the LPGA Hall of Fame.

Asked about potentially entering the Hall of Fame, Korda said in June: "I think it's an amazing accomplishment and it would be one of the best achievements of my career for sure."

The four-time major winner opened the 2026 LPGA Tour season with a six-tournament stretch where she either won or finished as the runner-up, to open a healthy lead in the points race.

South Korea's Haeran Ryu also won two majors this year but withdrew from last week's tournament in Malaysia because of injury.

And with Japan's Miyu Yamashita and Thailand's Jeeno Thitikul not entering The Annika next week in Florida, Korda secured the award with three tournaments remaining.
