Jessica Korda WDs from LPGA Drive On Championship with rib injury

After Jessica Korda carded her second double bogey of the day only six holes into the LPGA Drive On Championship, she decided not to head to the tee box on Crown Colony's par-3 seventh.

That's because Korda decided to withdraw from the 54-hole event in Fort Myers, Florida, with a sprain in her ribs and an intercostal muscle sprain, she announced on Twitter. The world No. 23 was making her third start of the season following consecutive top-20 finishes.

After this week, the LPGA will not play again until its Asia swing in March.
