Career

Nomura started to play golf at age of 11, and in 2007 she won the Japan Junior Golf Championship for girls 12–14 years of age. Nomura was the low amateur at the 2009 Japan Women's Open. She turned pro in December 2010 after qualifying for the LPGA Tour on her first attempt, finishing tied for 39th at the LPGA Final Qualifying Tournament to earn Priority List Category 20 for the 2011 season. She qualified for the 2011 U.S. Women's Open through one of the sectional qualifying tournaments. Her first professional victory came on the LPGA Futures Tour in April 2011 at the Daytona Beach Invitational. She followed this with a win on the LPGA of Japan Tour in May 2011 and her third victory came on the LPGA of Korea Tour in 2015. In 2013 she was runner-up at the Mizuno Classic on the LPGA Tour.

On 21 February 2016, Nomura held off world number one Lydia Ko to win her first LPGA tournament, the ISPS Handa Women's Australian Open, the first Japanese victory on the LPGA Tour since Mika Miyazato won the Safeway Classic in 2012. With the victory, Nomura moved from 67th to 50th in the Women's World Golf Rankings and into second on the 2016 LPGA Tour Money List.
