What happened at the 2024 AIG Women's Open
Nelly Korda flew the green and made double bogey at the par-5 14th, then bogeyed the 17th after her second shot found the Road Hole bunker.
After a hybrid to 20 feet and a par at the Road Hole 17th, Ko hit a wedge close at the 18th and holed the birdie putt that clinched a two-shot win.
