You could take the world by storm and carve your name deep in your field. However, the child and fangirl in you will still come out when encountering the legends who are your idols. Nelly Korda, after a scintillating year, felt exactly the same when she crossed paths with Tiger Woods.

At the PNC Championship currently underway in Orlando, Florida, Nelly is already making history as she joins the list of the few women to play in the ‘father-son/daughter’ challenge. Moreover, playing in a stout field comprising the golfers she has grown up watching, it’s undoubtedly one of the highlights of her year.

However, an adorable moment took place that we’re so grateful was caught on camera. Let’s check it out-

All fans are probably thanking the person who had the good sense to record this special moment. As the video begins, Nelly meekly approaches Tiger and asks him whether she could get a photo with him. She adds, “I didn’t wanna bother you right now, but I really wanted a photo.”

Woods, seemingly excited too, agrees and also meets with her tennis star father and brother.

Meanwhile, Tiger extols Korda’s skills

Later, in conversation, Woods listed Nelly’s never-ending achievements from the year, and also compared her quick success to tennis aces Serena and Venus Williams. Moreover, he said, “She just has that fire, that inner drive… It’s just fun to see someone at that age succeed as fast as she has and earned it.”

In addition, commenting on her insane skills, he said, “Her golf swing, how fluid it is… her temperament on the golf course… Some players will dog it here and there. But not Nelly.”

Well, if she is ‘fan-girled’ while meeting him, we wish we could see her reaction when she reads all the praises Tiger has for her! And the best is part, she is utterly deserving of it!
