Nelly Korda picked up a win at the Pelican Women’s Championship, her fourth of this spectacular season. Following that, she gave us an insight into what anger does to her game, and also why she prefers to stay calm.

Korda has notched up four wins this season, including a master’s title, which she claims she’s most proud of. She also won a prestigious gold medal at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. In addition, she attained the world number 1 ranking in women’s golf. She has had a dreamy season, and she’s planning to finish it off with the award of the Player of the year, as she races ahead of Jin Young Ko following this win.

Nelly Korda prefers to remain mellow on course

A reporter asked her whether she plays better when she is riled up. The 7-time winner on the PGA Tour replied in the affirmative. She said that when she used to play against her dad as a child, he would always try to irritate her. He did this because he thought she ‘stepped it up a notch when pi*sed’.

Talking of her walk after the 17th hole where she triple-bogeyed, she said, “I was fuming though, on that walk from the tee to the fairway.” The interviewer then asked her what her father did in order to pi*s her off.

Korda said, “He would just be a smart a*s. Because he was good and it was always so close, and I would always pay. Like, we would play for money and he would always try to tick me off, and it worked a lot.”

Recalling a story from a couple of days before, she said, “He was playing really good. He was starting to smack talk, and I was just like, ‘Okay, get out of here. I don’t want to play with you anymore. You get me so fired up!’ So, I mean, I don’t really like to be fired up. I like to keep it pretty mellow out there. But, I don’t know.”

Since golf requires complete and utter focus, seems like the best strategy!
