Nelly Korda has won 17 tournaments on the LPGA Tour

It is her 2nd Chevron in the last 3 seasons, equalling the tournament 54 hole record -20 but fell 2 short of the 72 hole record with her -18 total.

"Honestly, having that big of a lead, it's not easy. It was definitely one of the hardest things I've had to do mentally.

"I have an amazing support system. An amazing family who are right behind me. An amazing caddie who is on the bag and I'm just happy to get it done."

Korda takes her tally of majors to three, after also winning the Women's PGA Championship in 2021.

After rounds of 65 on Thursday and Friday, Korda followed with successive rounds of 70 over the weekend at Houston's Memorial Park.

Thailand's Patty Tavatanakit began the day five shots adrift in second but was unable to reduce the deficit, having also ended her tournament with a two-under-par 70.

Canada's Brooke Henderson finished T49 74 71 72 73 +2

Matt and Alex Fitzpatrick hail from Sheffield in South Yorkshire

At the end of a tense, emotional Sunday, usually reserved for Augusta, not befitting the usual fare for this two man team play, fun family week at the Zurich Classic, Matt Fitzpatrick, struggling with his game after the best 43 days of his career, nailed a 40 yard bunker shot under the gun, stiff at the 72nd hole, this time for his younger brothers immediate future on the PGA Tour. 

A 71 for a -31 total just edging Alex Smalley/ Hayden Springer and Kristoffer Reitan/ Kris Venturi who get honourable mention after their eagle 3 at the last, for the day's best score of 65 -30.

It turned out to be a fairytale ending for parents, Russell and Sue and their Fitzpatrick family. Just look at why Matt is the best golfer in the world over the last 43 days, right now!

Final EDIT >>>>> 2026/04/25

Bernd Wiesberger produced a stirring performance on the final back nine to claim his first DP World Tour title in five years at the 2026 Volvo China Open.

The Austrian had been a picture of consistency this week at Shanghai Enhance Anting Golf Club and trailed Adrian Otaegui by one shot heading into Sunday's final round.

It soon became a two-way tussle for the title as the final group surged clear of the field, however, Otaegui reached the turn with a three-shot lead at -19.

A scoring burst of three birdies in four holes saw Wiesberger reel in Otaegui before taking the outright lead at the 16th when Otaegui made his second bogey in five holes.

Emirati got in trouble again down the last with a double bogey to finish at -16 and Wiesberger played conservatively to seal his ninth DP World Tour title by three shots at -19 

"It's been a tough couple of years," an emotional Wiesberger said. "An unbelievable week. I played my heart out today, it wasn't pretty at times but I got it done.

Adrian is a great competitor and had it under control, but something happened on that tenth hole that I can't explain. After getting out of position at the par-five tenth, the Austrian produced a stunning chip-in for an unlikely birdie and gained some momentum.That's how golf goes sometimes.

"I'm super proud of sticking through hard times on the golf course lately, but this is for everyone at home and couldn't be happier.

"Everyone is watching and super excited now, and it changes my next couple of years a little bit. It gets me into the Rolex Series events again and that's huge."

Sweden's Mikael Lindberg fired a final-round 67 to clinch solo third at -14, with South African Shaun Norris one shot further back -13 in fourth.

German Freddy Schott carded the lowest round of Sunday with a 64 to take fifth at -12. France's Tom Vaillant and Englishman shared sixth at -11 under and defending champion Ashun Wu led Alejandro Del Rey, Darius van Driel, Antoine Rozner and Anthony Quayle one shot further back at -10

A recent AP story described him as "arguably" the hottest player in golf.

There is no arguably about it. A win today after Foursomes also has the caveat that his younger brother Alex will move from Sheffield in South Yorkshire to live with his brother in Florida to begin his 2 year exemption on this PGA Tour.

Emirati, Adrian Otaegui 62 leads, Cockerill T49, Volvo China Open...54 hole results, SUNDAY Tee Times

 

 DP World Tour : Volvo China Open Tee Times Leaderboard

After 54 holes on this Anting GC just north of Shanghai nobody is playing it better than the native of the UAE, 33 year old Adrian Otaegui, a rank and file veteran of the DP World Tour with 5 wins, ranked #303 in the world, but #33 in the Race to Dubai.

Consider this, in rounds of 66 69 62 -16 he has 20 birdies, 1 eagle, only 4 bogey's and a double, all the rest 28 pars for the clubhouse lead in round 3.

Bernd Weisberger 2nd, 64 66 68 -15 and Shaun Norris 3rd, 63 67 71 -12 are shaping up to make this a three horse race with Sunday to decide the winner.

At the other end of the field, Aaron Cockerill, buoyed by a opening 66 just hung on to make the trip from his family home in Dubai worthwhile with a Friday 74 to make the cut on the number at -2

This morning he was steady Eddie with 14 pars, 2 birdies, 2 bogey's for E 71 T47.

Aaron is currently #475 in the world, #136 in the Race to Dubai and with the trip to Turkey next week, then one more in Barcelona, the Estrella Damm Catalunya Championship before the break for the PGA Championship at Aronimink GC in Philadelphia, he will be looking to get back inside the top 100.

FINAL EDIT...730am EST 25/04/26 >>>>>

Adrian Otaegui produced a stunning 62 to surge into a one-shot lead at the 2026 Volvo China Open.

The Emirati began the day five shots adrift of overnight leaders Bernd Wiesberger and Shaun Norris, but he lurked ominously thanks to an eagle, four birdies and a bogey on his front nine to sit three off the pace.

Wiesberger was the one in front, however, his scoring stalled on the back nine and Otaegui reeled in the Austrian with four birdies to set the clubhouse target of -16.

A bogey at the 15th meant Wiesberger finished his third round one adrift at -15, with Norris a further three shots back at -12.

"It's been a very nice day. You know, bit of everything," Otaegui said. "Started very nicely with a very good birdie on the first.

"Then a beautiful hole out on hole number four for eagle, and then just played very well on the front nine, finished the front nine with three birdies for -5. And then I just kept going, made some very nice birdies on 10 and 11, both three footers.

"Then a very nice chip-in on 16. And 17, 18 were a bit of a fight, but I managed to save a very nice par on 17, which almost felt like a birdie. It was a very, very positive day."

First-round leader Alejandro Del Rey 70, is one back at -11 4th, while Frenchman Antoine Rozner and Sweden's Mikael Lindberg both signed for 65 to reach -10

Italian Guido Migliozzi 66, is one adrift in 7th -9 and home pair Zihao Jin 71, and Bo Peng 68 are alongside Spain's Angel Ayora 70, American Davis Bryant 66 and Englishman Nathan Kimsey 67 at -8
