Jessica Korda does in Rome what Romans do!

Before she welcomes her first child into the world, Jessica Korda is enjoying an international trip with her husband. She is currently busy in Rome enjoying Italian food and admiring the brilliant and beautiful architecture of the country.

And she is giving her fans regular updates on her trip. Jessica is visiting Italy with her husband and has shared pics of her visit to the beach, food courts, and boat rides in the sea. She has been in the country for a week now and now is trying her hand at a dad joke.

Today in her Instagram stories she shared a snap of her frequently used emojis. And on the side, she wrote most used emojis while in Italy. The set includes a smiling and sad face, a fire moon, the pinched fingers and a bunch of other emojis. Pinched fingers in Italian means “what do you want?” Well, do in Rome what Romans do! The kind of post one would only expect from their father, no?

Nelly Korda chooses to sit out once again!

Two weeks ago Korda appeared in the Solheim Cup but before that, she skipped the Kroger Queen City Championship. The week after the Spain event, she skipped out on the NW Arkansas Championship and once again she is skipping events this week. She will be missing The Ascendant LPGA Benefiting Volunteers of America from Oct 5–8 with a purse of $1,800,000 as well as the Aramco Team Series Hong Kong with a $1 million prize purse.

This has been an undeniably tough year for Nelly Korda. Her health issues coupled with bad performances have made many question her skills. And she has been stepping calculatingly and holding herself back from many events this year.

Both sisters are currently going through tough phases. While Nelly is facing challenges on the green, becoming a mother and giving birth is the biggest challenge of a woman’s life and Jessica is braving it admirably.
