EVIAN, France — Nelly Korda arrives in France hoping to halt an alarming drop in form at this week's Evian Championship, having also had her preparations hit by a dog bite.The world No. 1 enjoyed a remarkable start to the season with six titles, including five successive triumphs culminating with her second major crown at the Chevron Championship. Korda appeared unbeatable during that run, drawing comparisons to Tiger Woods at his peak and current men's world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler.
Korda headed into the US Women's Open as a red-hot favorite but fired a disastrous 10 on a par-three in the opening round en route to missing the cut and still seems to be struggling to recover.She also failed to make the weekend in her next event two weeks later before suffering a third successive missed cut at the Women's PGA Championship in June.
