Nelly Korda’s defense of her Chevron Championship title got off to such a rough start that the world’s top-ranked golfer is in serious danger of missing the cut in the LPGA’s first major of the year.

Korda won her fifth consecutive event at last year's Chevron. The difference this year, she said, is that the putts aren't falling.

At this time a year ago, Nelly Korda was in the early stages of doing something spectacular in the world of golf. She had two victories under her belt and was in the process of putting together five wins in as many LPGA Tour tournaments.
