Nelly Korda is not a force to be reckoned with on the golf course. She has taken women’s golf by an absolute storm and has produced a sensational season. It was perfect, really. Four LPGA Tour titles (including a major), an Olympic gold medal, world number one ranking, and most probably, the title of the Player of the Year.

The 23-year-old is winning hearts, and it’s very difficult for fans to not like her. She is as great a person as she is a golfer. Meanwhile, the golfer’s personal life is not very private, owing to her well-known sports family. She was born in 1998 to Czech tennis champs Petr Korda and Regina Rajchrtová. Her father is a grand slam winner and her mother is also an international tennis player.

In addition, her elder sister Jessica Korda plays golf professionally alongside her. Her younger brother, Sebastian, is a rising tennis star, winner of the 2018 Australian Open in the boy’s division. Hence, privacy is not something she really has access to. However, what all do you know about the man she is dating? Let’s find out!

Meet Andreas Athanasiou; Nelly Korda’s Boyfriend

Andreas Athanasiou is a Canadian professional ice hockey player, currently playing as a center for the Los Angeles Kings of the National Hockey League (NHL). He was born on August 6, 1994, and is of Greek and Guyanese ethnicity. Aged 27, he is a couple of years elder than Korda, but their similar interests probably make up for the difference.

He joined his current team only at the beginning of the 2020 season. Prior to that, he played for the Detroit Red Wings for almost five years. Moreover, at the 2011 U-17 World Hockey Challenge, he was a part of the gold-medal winning team.
