Nelly Korda flew from Midland, Michigan, to New York City for a Monday morning appearance on NBC’s ‘Today’ show. The LPGA world No. 1 is the first U.S. Women’s Open winner<\/a> invited to appear on the show since Michelle Wie West won the championship in 2014.<\/p>\n

Korda, a four-time major winner and Olympic gold medalist, appeared shortly after segments that featured summer travel tips, the former makeup mogul Scott Vincent Borba, who joined the priesthood, and actress Zoey Deutch.<\/p>\n

Host Dylan Dreyer, who plays regularly in the LPGA’s season-opening Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions<\/a>, began the segment by asking Korda what she was feeling over the short putt that nearly missed on the 72nd hole.<\/p>\n

“Absolutely nothing,” said Korda. “I could not feel my hands. I did not feel anything in my body.”<\/p>\n

Dreyer also asked Korda to take a look at a video of her swing and offer tips.<\/p>\n
