Nelly Korda’s energy is truly contagious. Her cheerful nature lightens up the mood of everyone around her. However, like seasons of a year, a person’s mood cannot remain the same all the time, and the same goes for the LPGA sensation.

However, the overly optimistic attitude of her caddy since 2018, Jason McDede, sometimes doesn’t match Korda’s “Debbie Downer.” This duo truly balances one another, but her caddy’s exhilarating attitude towards life and the game sometimes does not align with the 25-year-old’s star. But is she complaining?

Jason McDede is Yin to Nelly Korda’s yang

Well, Nelly Korda was surely complaining about the positive person she has been blessed with, but it’s nothing serious, we assure you. The famous professional golfer, in a very fun and playful manner, said that how Jason McDede chooses to remain positive when her guts are wrenching with negative thoughts makes her want to punch him.

But haven’t we all had a friend who we dearly love but who is slightly annoying because they are always sunshine and rainbows? Well, Jason McDede is that friend for the 8-time LPGA Tour winner, and just like all our slightly annoyed but still full of love readers, she adores him.
