Commitment is a crucial way to crown Korda’s 2025 season. Although a victory eluded her this year, she put together one of the most consistent campaigns on the LPGA Tour, finishing the season without a single missed cut. She notched nine top 10s, including seven top 5s, highlighted by a solid third-place finish at the CME Group Tour Championship.
Even though a victory eluded him in 2025, Korda noted that the winless campaign has reinforced the importance of having a close group of people around you who you can lean on when things don’t go your way.

“I would say you get a lot more criticism when you’re at the top of the game and, in a close-knit circle, you’re very grateful to the people around you,” Korda said. “The circle gets a little smaller, but I think I have an incredible circle. I would say I’m extremely, extremely lucky for the people around me. Ultimately, in the life that we live and perform in front of people, it’s extremely important to have that stability in your life.”
With a remarkable season of consistent performances behind her and a joyous personal milestone to celebrate, Korda closes out 2025 on a high note – on and off the course. Fans and fellow athletes will watch with bated breath as she looks ahead to what promises to be an exciting next chapter in her life and career.
