Is Nelly Korda's dominance on the LPGA Tour overshadowing Charley Hull's financial triumphs?

Nelly Korda and Charley Hull, are two golfing powerhouses dominating the LPGA Tour! They’re neck and neck in the Rolex Rankings, with Korda currently holding the top spot and Hull securing the 15th place. This season has been a real nail-biter, with both golfers trying their absolute best to win the tournaments. Korda clinched Olympic gold and made history with her jaw-dropping six Tour victories – five of which were consecutive while Hull’s season was rather dull with no victories.

So, who’s winning in the bank balance department? Well, the answer is trickier than you’d think!

Nelly Korda’s 2024 season has been nothing short of phenomenal! After a disappointing winless streak in 2023, she bounced back stronger than ever, racking up 13 tour victories. This impressive comeback has catapulted Korda to the top of the LPGA rankings, dominating both the Race to CME Globe points list and the money list. Her hard work has paid off, literally – she’s earned a whopping $3.7 million this season.

But Korda’s success isn’t just about the numbers. Her passion and dedication have caught the attention of top brands like Nike, TaylorMade, Goldman Sachs, and Richard Mille, who now sponsor her. She’s particularly fond of Richard Mille watches, marveling at the craftsmanship that goes into each timepiece.

With her talent, drive, and lucrative endorsements, Nelly Korda is solidifying her position as one of the most successful and inspiring female golfers today.

Have an interesting take?

Charley Hull’s golf career has been a real money-spinner! As of August 2024, she racked up an impressive $8.3 million (£6.5m) in earnings, per Mirror. But 2023 was her real breakout year, financially speaking where she bagged a whopping £1.9m thanks to those thrilling runner-up finishes in the U.S. Women’s Open and Women’s British Open. Can you imagine earning almost £2 million in just one year?

That massive windfall seriously boosted Hull’s net worth, solidifying her spot among the top-earning female golfers. By the end of 2023, her estimated net worth stood at around $9m (£7m). And with $546,739 (£430,869) added to her coffers in 2024, her financial future looks brighter than ever. With sponsorships and endorsements rolling in, Charley Hull’s bank balance is sure to keep growing. She’s truly living the dream! But it is nothing compared to Korda as Hull as the golfer has earned $2 million in 2024 alone which has pushed her career earnings to $12.6 million.
