Jessica Korda (forearm) will not defend her Thailand title

Jessica Korda won’t be able to defend her title at the Honda LPGA Thailand next week.

Korda, 25, has withdrawn from the event with a forearm injury. She also has withdrawn from the HSBC Women’s World Championship the following week.

“Unfortunately, my recovery from my forearm injury has taken longer than we expected,” Korda wrote in an Instagram post. “I hope to start my season in March at the Bank of Hope Founders Cup in Arizona.”
