The Wilshire Country Club is poised for the presence of 144 elite golfers, each ready to showcase their skills. However, besides the reigning champion, Hannah Green, other LPGA pros like Rose Zhang, Danielle Kang, and Jin Young Ko have garnered significant attention from fans in the past week. Why?

Well, because they missed the cut in the season’s first major and are now geared up to compete against other top-ranked golfers at the 2024 JM Eagle LA Championship. With a $3.75 million purse on the line, fans have multiple options to catch their favorite pros in action.

The Plastpro tournament’s sixth edition is filled with several surprises. Beginning with the purse for the tournament increasing to $3.75 million from $3 million, the 2024 JM Eagle LA Championship now stands as the largest tournament on the LPGA Tour, excluding the majors and the CME Group Tour Championship. This news came as a surprising and thrilling development for fans. The withdrawal of the #1 golfer, Nelly Korda, also took enthusiasts by surprise.

Why did Nelly Korda withdraw?

Nelly Korda has now matched the record for the most consecutive wins with five consecutive victories on the LPGA Tour after triumphing at the Chevron Championship on Sunday.
