Golf glamor girl Paige Spiranac is relishing in the moment for women athletes after a banner week for superstars in their respective sports.
Spiranac took to Twitter after American women’s golfer Nelly Korda won the Chevron Championship – her fifth straight victory on the LPGA Tour.
‘5 straight wins for Nelly Korda! Pretty cool to see Nelly and Scottie [Scheffler] dominating,’ Spiranac posted.
She then offered up a suggestion that could draw audiences: ‘Now we need to see them play a match against each other!’
But later in the evening, Spiranac took a whole look at the field of women’s sports and was in awe: ‘Caitlin Clark, Nelly Korda and so many more! What a time for women’s sports!’

It’s the fifth straight victory for Korda in only nine LPGA events to start the season
It was just last week that Clark was selected first overall in the WNBA Draft after a stellar college career at the University of Iowa.
She became the NCAA’s all-time leading scorer in a career for both men and women this year, with an astounding 3,951 points scored.
But Clark may not be the most dominant woman athlete to start the year: that honor may be more deserved for Korda.
There have been nine LPGA events played so far this season. Korda has won five of them.
That includes the first major of the year, the Chevron Championship – where Korda won by two strokes over Sweden’s Maja Stark at The Club at Carlton Woods outside Houston, Texas.
It’s her fifth victory in a row, having previously won the LPGA Drive On Championship back in January – then taking a long break before winning the last four LPGA events in a row: the FIR HILLS SERI PAK Championship, the Ford Championship, and the T-Mobile Match Play before the Chevron.
