Newly minted Player of the Year Nelly Korda has not played competitively in nearly two months, but based on her opening round at The Pelican on Thursday, you could never have guessed that was the case.

Charley Hull, fresh off her first victory in more than two years, didn’t lose her form from Saudi Arabia to Florida in opening with a 6-under-par 64 to share the lead with Jiwon Jeon.

Then again, it would be unfair to compare her to Nelly Korda, who is the No. 1-ranked female golfer in the world right now and who Clark played the first nine holes of the pro-am alongside. There was a ton of mutual respect between Clark and Korda.
