I love travelling to places like Mexico, all over the world. I'm just having fun," Korda said, following a closing round of 69.The 27-year-old American opened up a seven-shot lead early in the final round which started early to avoid thunderstorms.Her run of bogey-free holes, which began following a dropped shot on the second hole in round one, ended with a mishap on the last after firing into bushes and then a bunker.The six prevented her from matching her largest LPGA Tour margin of victory, set last week with her five-shot win in Houston."Golf humbled me on the last hole and I made my first bogey on the weekend," she said."Overall I'm so happy. I played some really good golf. You put in the work. Everyone out here puts in the work. Sometimes it works out."Related topicsGolfMore on this storyKorda returns to world number one with Chevron winPublished26 AprilRose ties for 65th with new McLaren clubsPublished9 hours ago
