Nelly Korda and Scottie Scheffler made waves in the golf world this week with their tournament wins. Scheffler has won 4 out of the last 5 tournaments he has competed in, while Korda captured her second major title at the Chevron Championship, marking her fifth win in a row. The Golf Channel Podcast with Rex & Lav discussed these victories and the connections between the two golfers during an incredible spring stretch.
The podcast also delved into Scheffler’s impressive 10 career wins and speculated on who might step up to challenge his dominance in upcoming tournaments. They examined Korda’s consistent success and questioned whether her string of victories will energize the women’s golf scene.
The conversation turned to the young talent displayed by Miles Russell on the Korn Ferry Tour, prompting a discussion about the significance of his achievement at such a young age. Additionally, Rex shared a personal anecdote about celebrating his son’s 21st birthday by drinking around the world at Epcot, adding a lighthearted touch to the podcast episode.
Despite the competitive nature of professional golf, the podcast managed to cover a diverse range of topics and maintain a balanced perspective on the sport’s current trends.
