(Reuters) - Nelly Korda, who has been world number one longer than any other American, said on Wednesday she does not feel added pressure sitting top of the rankings.

Korda, who enters this week's Gainbridge LPGA in Boca Raton, Florida, as the defending champion, has held the top spot in the world rankings for 29 weeks, surpassing the 21-week run Stacy Lewis enjoyed in 2014.
