Nelly Korda has withdrawn from this week's JM Eagle LA Championship after claiming her second major title and fifth straight victory in The Chevron Championship. Korda's two-shot victory on Sunday saw her tie the record for most consecutive LPGA wins, with Nancy Lopez in 1978 and Annika Sorenstam the only other women to achieve the feat. In a statement published on the LPGA's website, Korda wrote: 'Wow! What a week.
