Golfer Nelly Korda making return from blood clot at U.S. Women's Open

Nelly Korda, who has been sidelined since March because of a blood clot in her left arm, will return to competitive golf at next week's U.S. Women's Open at Pine Needles in Southern Pines, North Carolina.

Korda, 23, made the announcement on Instagram on Friday, posting a photo of herself with her caddie, Jason McDede, and the comment, "See you guys @uswomensopen next week."

She announced on April 8 that she had undergone surgery for a blood clot in her subclavian vein in her left arm.

"I am pleased to report the procedure went well and the doctors were happy with the outcome," Korda wrote on Twitter.
