The elder Korda sister, Nelly Korda is currently the world’s number 2 player. She is somewhat of a legend in the game. She started her career in 2017 but the year 2021 was one of the best years of her professional life. She reached the pinnacle in 2021 when she won three tournaments on the LPGA Tour, including the Women’s PGA Championship, which was her maiden major victory. Her triumphs at the Meijer LPGA Classic and the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship further cemented her reputation as one of the Tour’s most consistent performers. In a press conference of the Chevron Championship, the first major of the LPGA Tour, Nelly Korda revealed her disgusting habit.

Nelly Korda reveals her disgusting habit ahead of Chevron Championship

Nelly Korda was questioned about her practicing sessions at home and if she records them. She was quick to respond, “Oh, yeah, so many videos on my phone, it’s disgusting.” Korda revealed that she has a habit of recording her practice sessions when she is at home practicing her swings.

A reporter asked if her dad helps her in recording, to which she answered that she does it herself with the help of her tripod. Jokingly, she said if he had known that he had to help her record, “he would boycott every one of my practices.”

The elder Korda sister then ballparked the number of swing videos she has and it was 6000 or maybe even more. She said that first, she does at least 20 or 30 practice swings and then plays that one iconic shot.

“But I have been told that I need to stop, or I just need to delete them all and keep the one I want,” she added while laughing it off. 

Will Korda be able to finally overcome her Major drought?

Nelly Korda has one major title to her name that she won back in 2021. She has been trying to double that number, and maybe this weekend could be it. Regrettably, due to her rehabilitation from an injury, the golf professional was unable to participate in the tournament last year. However, this year she is in excellent condition. By abstaining from last week’s competition and consistently delivering top-notch performances, including three top-5 finishes and one T6 in the five PGA Tour events she has competed in this year, she has received adequate rest and appears more prepared than ever to claim her second major victory.

Will Nelly Korda be able to win her second major title this weekend? What do you think?
