Nelly Korda of the United States, who ranked first in the world ranking, took the lead alone in the second round of the Tokyo Olympics and golf girls.

Average flight distance is 280 yards

A 23-year-old Corda player who participates in the Tokyo Olympics golf girls with her sister Jessica.

The characteristic is a driver shot that makes the best use of the height of 1 meter 78 cm.

This year, at the overseas majors and the Women's PGA Championship held in June, he won the overseas majors for the first time and climbed to the top of the world ranking.



At the Tokyo Olympics, which was held in good shape, Ko Jin-young of South Korea and Nasa Hataoka of Japan were in the same group as No. 2 in the world ranking.



In the first round on the 4th, he finished 2nd with 4 unders, and on the 5th, his unique driver shot shined.

The average flight distance of the driver up to the second round is 280 yards.

It is the fourth of the 60 participants.



Hataoka of Japan is 263 yards and Mone Inami is 256 yards, which is an average of 15 to 20 meters.

Flying distance also has a positive effect on the approach

The advantage of the driver's flight distance also affects the accuracy of the iron's approach, and Corda has a par-on rate of more than 88%, which is the highest among all players.



In the second round of the 5th, when the tee position was pushed forward in many holes, the distance of this driver led to a good score.

The highlight was the 6th par 4.

When Corda swung the driver here, he succeeded in turning 1 on.


Corda, who calmly sank an eagle putt of about 7 meters and gained momentum, showed the world's best ability in golf without a gap such as two consecutive birdies.



Hataoka, who went around in the same group,


"Korda has been playing for two days, which seems to be No. 1 in the world. I feel a little difference."

"No doubt the best round"

After the second round, Corda said, "I had a good shot in the first half and I was able to make a long putt in the second half. I have had 9 unders in the past, but it is definitely the best round." It seemed that he was deepening his confidence.



Golf girls have 2 days left.

We are also paying attention to the world's No. 1 flight distance and skill as well as the success of Japanese players who are looking for the top.
