Nelly Korda reacts to the addition of her game character

As the female pro golfer took a look at her character model in the PGA Tour 2K23 game, she was visibly surprised to find out how much the in-game model represented her in reality. Earlier, while taking part in the latest iteration of the game, which is filled with real-life players and courses, the pro golfer must not have realized it would lead to such a result.

“That’s actually scary accurate.” said the golfer while mesemerized with the character resemblance. She went on to talk about how the swing looks good while her avatar drives the ball. Even the reaction after the shot was matched to look like the golfer as she watched the character in motion.
