But both played this past week, albeit with different results.
Korda, making her LPGA Tour debut, didn't break par in four rounds during the Honda LPGA Thailand.
Korda soared to a 78 in the third round, ultimately finishing at 11-over 299.
However, the invitational-based tournament didn't offer a cut, so every player cashed.
Korda's debut earned her $5,494 and a tie for 51st.
Meanwhile, Sweeney rebounded from a rough start at the Pegasus New Zealand Women's Open - her third straight Ladies European Tour start.
The Andover, Mass. native opened with a 78 but responded with a 2-under 70 to make the cut by one shot.
Sweeney made good on her fortuitous break with a scorching 67 in the final round to vault up the leaderboard.
Her fourth round performance included a 6-under 30 on the front nine. Sweeney's Sunday charge yielded 2,500 Euros and a tie for 20th.
The LET doesn't play again until the end of March.
