Lexi Thompson and Lydia Ko’s Empowering Tradition Shift as Nelly Korda Takes Center Stage

Lexi Thompson and Lydia Ko, two golf titans, come together to pay homage to a revered LPGA tradition, while Nelly Korda steals the spotlight as the new host. The changing of the guard at the Champions Dinner table marks a significant moment in the history of women’s golf, showcasing the evolution and legacy of the sport.
Nine years ago, Lexi Thompson made history by becoming the youngest winner of a women’s Major championship. Now, she stands alongside Lydia Ko, the 2016 Chevron champion, as they both take a back seat to Nelly Korda, who earned the prestigious role of hosting the exclusive gathering as the defending champion. This symbolic passing of the torch emphasizes the time-honored tradition within the world of golf.
The Champions Dinner serves as a platform for past and present champions to come together and celebrate the sport’s rich history. As Thompson and Ko return as guests to celebrate Korda’s triumph, the essence of camaraderie and sportsmanship shines through. The Chevron Championship captured the essence of this moment perfectly, highlighting the notion that hosting duties are earned, not given.
Each host leaves a unique mark on the tradition, reflecting their personal style and background. Thompson’s hosting year in 2015 exuded youthful exuberance and American flair, while Ko’s 2017 duties showcased global diversity through her New Zealand and Korean-inspired menu. Now, it’s Korda’s turn to make her mark, collaborating with Michelin-starred chef Thomas Keller to curate an elegant menu that adds a touch of sophistication to the event.
The Champions Dinner tradition extends far beyond a single evening, fostering mentorship and camaraderie among champions from different eras. As Korda steps into the hosting role, she joins a legacy that has weathered venue changes, pandemics, and generational shifts, solidifying her place in the annals of women’s golf history.
The evolution of the Champions Dinner underscores the growth, legacy, and continuity of the LPGA, serving as a testament to the enduring spirit of the sport. As Thompson, Ko, and now Korda take their place in the hosting pantheon, they embody the essence of sportsmanship, tradition, and excellence that define women’s golf at its finest.

Djokovic learns fate in new home as Sabalenka addresses behaviour

Express Sport brings you the latest tennis news from the Paris Masters.
We’re reaching the business end of the Paris Masters, as eight players become four in the French capital. Jannik Sinner is the overwhelming favourite to lift the trophy after Carlos Alcaraz was dumped out by Cameron Norrie in the Spaniard’s opening match. Norrie was then beaten by Valentin Vacherot, whose amazing 10-match winning streak at Masters 1000 level came to an end when he lost to Felix Auger-Aliassime.
Canadian star Auger-Aliassime will face Alexander Bublik in the semis. Bublik defeated Alex de Minaur, who is among those to have already qualified for the year-end ATP Finals. Sinner is through to his first Paris Masters semi-final after beating Ben Shelton. He’ll face defending champion Alexander Zverev, who survived a tough match against Daniil Medvedev.
Novak Djokovic is not involved in the Paris Masters, having decided to skip the event for the second year in a row, but he has learned his fate in the draw of next week’s ATP 250 in Athens. And over in Riyadh, the WTA Finals are about to get underway.
