Given that Annika Sorenstam and Inbee Park are the other two, she\u2019s in awfully good company.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=13084\">Hunter Caplan, who was All-OC basketball at Crean Lutheran, transfers to Orange Lutheran<\/a><\/p>\n<p>But the other winner these past few days? Riviera.<\/p>\n<p>Or maybe we should put it this way: The USGA, and women\u2019s golf overall, won by having the good sense to finally put this nation\u2019s championship in one of the sport\u2019s most iconic layouts. Los Angeles \u2013 and particularly the community that surrounds Riviera, still in recovery mode from the devastating fires that ravaged Pacific Palisades in January, 2025 \u2013 also won, with this week-long reminder that this community is still awfully special, no matter what the haters say.<\/p>\n<p>(And yes, we ourselves joke about the traffic and commute times, when we\u2019re not grousing about it, so no need to go there.)<\/p>\n<p>Really, anyone who watched the final round \u2013 including those wondering if there might be bonus golf on Monday in the form of a playoff \u2013 had to come away enthused.<\/p>\n<p>At the conclusion of this tournament, the amazement shouldn\u2019t be about Riviera\u2019s ability to host, or that the course was enough of a test that as the leaders reached the back nine Sunday, there was a four-way tie for the lead at 7-under \u2013 and Britain\u2019s Charley Hull, who was 3-over par after the first two rounds, was lurking right behind and wound up finishing second.<\/p>\n<p>Is it a testament to the course, and the conditions, that it was so competitive down to the end? Maybe. Maybe not. The USGA may have made the pin placements challenging \u2013 it\u2019s the way things are done on the final day, after all \u2013 but the wind was a challenge as the day progressed, and there\u2019s not much that can be done about that.<\/p>\n<p>But I suspect some of those who played the course were reminded, if they weren\u2019t already aware, of the history that has made Riviera iconic. It has hosted the men\u2019s U.S. Open (1948) and PGA Championships (1983 and \u201995), a U.S. Senior Open in 1998 and a U.S. Amateur in 2017, as well as the NCAA Division I men\u2019s championship in 2012.<\/p> <div>\n<\/div>\n<p>It will be the site of the men\u2019s and women\u2019s Olympic competitions in two years, and the men\u2019s U.S. Open will be back here in 2031. (Why was the men\u2019s Open at L.A. Country Club three years ago instead of Riviera? Good question.)<\/p>\n<p>And, really, that iconic clubhouse overlooking it all and particularly the amphitheatre effect of the 18th green as one group after another approaches the end of the round and particularly the end of the tournament on a Sunday afternoon \u2026 that is goosebump territory.<\/p>\n<p>As it certainly was for the champion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s such an iconic golf course (and) event,\u201d Korda said after accepting the champion\u2019s trophy on that 18th green Sunday afternoon. \u201cYou know, the golf course holds so much history, and to have my name alongside so many great champions is a dream come true.\u201d<\/p> <div>\n<\/div>\n<p>And, she said later in her media session, that walk up the 18th had an impact.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s really amazing to see,\u201d she said. \u201cI mean, especially with the hole. It kind of gave me vibes of like in Paris (during the 2024 Olympics) where it was just a very great golf course for fans to watch, where there\u2019s not a bad seat in the house, and it makes it really cool to walk up to see the iconic golf, the clubhouse and everyone sitting around cheering me on.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=13082\">Man wanted in connection with assault on Orange County deputy arrested in Murrieta<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI had to honestly, a couple times, tell myself, okay, stay in the moment, stay in the moment, because I was dreaming, I was dreaming of hoisting the trophy a little too early. And I kept reverting back. I\u2019m like, \u2018the job\u2019s not done, the job\u2019s not done, yeah.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Korda isn\u2019t from L.A., but that philosophy \u2013 \u201cjob\u2019s not finished,\u201d\u00a0 as Kobe Bryant memorably noted \u2013 does resonate around here.<\/p>\n<p>Majors are different, especially when the competition is as tight as it was Sunday afternoon. Korda, Hull, Gaby Lopez, In Gee Chun, and Sei Young Kim all had a shot at the trophy, and at one point there was a four-way tie for the lead: Korda (on the 12th hole), Chun (13th), Kim and Lopez (both on the 14th) at 7-under, with Hull (on the 15th) at 6-under.<\/p>\n<p>One by one, the pack separated. Kim hit her second shot into the left rough on the par-14 13th, and wound up sliding a 10-foot putt to the right for bogey. Chun bogied 12 and 13. Lopez made a late charge with birdies on 10, 11 and 13, but she gave one back when she missed a 7-footer for par on 16.<\/p>\n<p>As it turned out, Hull \u2013 who tied the Open record for low score over the final two rounds by going 65-67 \u2013 punctuated it with a birdie on 17 and a dead-on par putt on 18, putting herself at 7 under.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI love that feeling\u201d that comes with a high stakes situation, Hull said afterwards. \u201cI love the feel of being under the gun, under pressure. It\u2019s not like a life and death situation, but you know that adrenaline that you get, that adrenaline like \u2026 when you do go wrong you got to bounce back.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019ll be a massive comedown tomorrow, not because I (came in) second but because the adrenaline goes out of my body. But I love the feeling.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After Hull put the pressure on, Korda birdied 17 to go 8 under. And then, her par putt on 18 \u2013 measured at 2 feet, 10 inches \u2013 spun tantalizingly around the rim of the cup before dropping in and ending the suspense.<\/p>\n<p>Hey, it\u2019s close enough to Hollywood. There had to be some drama, right?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow cool is Riviera?\u201d USGA chief executive officer Mike Whan said during the trophy ceremony. \u201cIt was the star of the show.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=13081\">USC baseball\u2019s College World Series bid ends on North Carolina\u2019s walk-off double<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI promise we\u2019ll be here (again) much quicker.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mike, we\u2019re holding you to that.<\/p>\n<p>jalexander@scng.com<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An iconic setting was the backdrop for an entertaining major championship that went down to the wire.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":13085,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9,42],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13093","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-opinion-columnist","category-represents-the-opinion-of-the-author-who-is-either-a-paid-columnist-or-an-unpaid-guest-columnist"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
