In the past few years, we saw Nelly Korda emerging and becoming a fans’ favorite golfer. Her humbleness, cheerful smile, and amazing swings make the golf world go crazy. Recently she revealed her choice of butter, and she knew it might get controversial, hence pleaded also not to blame her. And while it was still the topic of debate, Korda revealed her other favorite drink. What is it? And will fans reckon with it?

Nelly Korda loves this childhood drink

Despite joining the LPGA Tour in 2016 and her career just taking flight, fans already love her. The fans love watching her in action. However, she has taken off this week while her fellow players fly to Hawaii for the 2023 Lotte Championship. Therefore, fans are getting to see her on social media more than ever. A few days back, she revealed her favorite spread, which might have been controversial. She wrote on her Instagram story, “Cashew butter is better than almond and peanut butter.”

Americans love peanut butter, and we consider almond butter the best substitute. She knew her fans might not like it; therefore, she pleaded, “Don’t come [at] me.” However, she also asked her fans to try it before dismissing it. In the same way, she has posted her favorite drink in her recent story. She first gave a disclaimer and wrote, “I feel like I’m about to kinda get blasted for this confession.” But then she revealed her drink and asked, “Did anyone else grow up drinking warm milk with honey at night? I crave it so often.” And in her next story, she took honey, mixed it with warm milk in a glass, and wrote, “Had to.”

However, while fans are busy considering the Olympic gold medalist’s food choices, they also wonder why Korda is not playing this week. The reason is not an injury, thankfully, but her own choice. The pro golfer has taken this decision to rest and prepare for the first women’s major championship of this season, the Chevron Championship.

The pro golfer has a warm heart

Korda doesn’t only like warm milk with honey but also has a warm and caring heart. Two years back, an LPGA pro Jane Park, had the scariest time with her daughter, Grace’s health. She was having seizures. The doctors believed that the problem was triggered by a virus or an autoimmune issue. Fortunately, the whole LPGA Tour came together and shared Park’s burden. Even though things are better now, it has been two years, Nelly Korda and Lexi Thompson continue to raise money for the fundraiser. They are helping Park by taking part in the charity event, ‘Saving Grace.’ The event will take place on the 8th of May at The Clubhouse in Fairfield, New Jersey.
