Nelly Korda has truly cemented her place in sports history with a remarkable 2024 season, which has not only earned her numerous victories but also brought significant financial success.
Korda, the standout player on the LPGA Tour and currently ranked World No. 1, had an exceptional year that peaked with her second major victory at the esteemed Chevron Championship. Her outstanding performance led to seven titles over the season, almost doubling her career wins to a notable total of 15. Additionally, she achieved an impressive 11 top-10 finishes throughout this period.
Demonstrating her exceptional skills on the golf course, it has been confirmed that Korda is among the top 10 highest-paid female athletes for 2024. A recent report by Sportico.com reveals she holds the No. 8 position with an estimated income of $14.4 million, highlighting her outstanding success both in competition and beyond.
This substantial amount includes $4.4 million from her achievements on the course, with most of her income coming from profitable endorsement deals. Although this revenue is undeniably impressive—especially given the relatively smaller LPGA prize funds—it pales in comparison to tennis star Coco Gauff, who tops the earnings list.
