Nelly Korda is one of the rising names on the LPGA circuit. The credit for that goes to her outstanding performances after she became a professional in 2016. She began her professional career with Symetra Tour.
There she showcased her stellar gameplay and landed the season’s 9th place on the money list, which paved her way to the LPGA Tour in 2017. Since then, she’s been performing as an LPGA Tour pro. She has a total of eight LPGA Tour wins in her bag and had her maiden major victory at the 2021 Women’s PGA Championship. Besides, the LPGA cover girl also secured the gold medal at the women’s individual golf event in the 2020 Summer Olympics, in Japan.
In terms of her current season’s performance, she had seven top-ten finishes this year. The list also includes two majors, the Chevron Championship and the Amundi Evian Championship, where she stood at T3 and T9, respectively. Due to her excellent putting throughout the season, the world’s No. 3 golfer managed to seal her seat on the Solheim Cup USA Team, along with her best buddy Megan Khang and other compatriots like Allisen Corpuz and Danielle Kang. Looking back, she made her first Solheim Cup debut in 2013 and played the 2019 and
2021 Solheim Cups for Team USA with her sister, Jessica Korda. But this year, Jessica won’t be Nelly’s playmate on the Spanish greens. Amidst all highs and lows, there has been a significant other who has constantly supported the 25-year-old. Let’s find out about Nelly’s beloved!
