Second year on the LPGA Tour, Korda was already delivering outstanding results. She started the season with a T6 finish in the Pure Silk Bahamas LPGA Classic. Then the 27-year-old got a runner-up position in the 2018 HSBC Women’s World Championship. A few more top-10s throughout the year, and Korda finally grabbed the Swinging Skirts LPGA Taiwan Championship in October. She followed that up with another runner-up in the CME Group Tour Championship.

Korda retained the Swinging Skirts LPGA Taiwan in 2019 and also won the ISPS Handa Women’s Australian Open. A year later, she captured four titles: the Gainbridge LPGA, the Meijer LPGA Classic, the Pelican Women’s Championship, and a major, the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship.
