Nelly’s play has taken her to a place she knows well. On Monday she officially took the top spot within the Rolex Rankings, her first appearance atop the list since August of last year before Jenno Thitikul took the spot.
This marks Nelly’s seventh time sitting atop the Rolex Rankings and collectively she has spent 109 weeks in the position across her career. The record for longest time spent at number one, since the inception of the Rolex Rankings, belongs to Jin Young Ko with 163 weeks. Nelly has tied Yani Tseng for the fourth-most weeks at number one, though.
It is Nelly Korda’s world right now and everyone is just living in it. We will see what else she has in store for 2026 soon enough.
