New LPGA commissioner Craig Kessler, who has officially been on the job for just nine days, saw an opportunity to put the newest superstar on his tour into an international spotlight in the final round. Earlier this month, Woad captured the Ladies European Tour’s KPMG Women’s Irish Open by six shots while still playing as an amateur.

World No. 1 women’s golfer Nelly Korda talks about staying grounded on the LPGA Tour, showcasing her personality on the golf course, and what keeps her balanced as a professional athlete.

Woad took home $300,000 from the overall $2 million purse. She now heads to the AIG Women’s Open next week at Royal Porthcawl in Wales and will clearly be among the handful of favorites to watch for the week.

World No. 1 Nelly Korda isn't particularly interested about an eventual Women's Masters. In her opinion, there are other things the LPGA should focus on.
