Route number 12 is about to become Korda’s fate. He hit his ball into the water a total of three times. He only got the ball in the hole on his tenth shot.
Väylä’s result was seven more than the ideal result. The American was visibly frustrated. He looked ahead in disbelief as he saw the ball drop off the tricky green into the water for the third time.
A reporter from Golf.com also wondered the same thing James Colgan. He couldn’t believe his eyes.

“If you hit too long, you’re in trouble, if you hit too short, you’re in trouble,” Korda told the golf reporter Jack Milkon by.
The superstar’s troubles continued shortly after this. A hole of bad luck followed Aftonbladet soon two bogies. With these, Korda’s result was already ten more than the ideal result.
