Nelly Korda seems to be preparing for her 2025 season in full swing. Figuratively and literally, as she recently "dragged" her father to play 27 holes.
The World no. 1 shared a video on her Instagram stories of her practicing her swing on a golf course. She wrote:
"Dragged Daddio to play 27 holes today,"
It appears that Korda and her father, Petr, practiced together on Saturday. The 26-year-old sported an all-black attire with a white cap. She also opted for blue and white Nike shoes.
The LPGA star teams up with her father for the PNC Championship every year. The 2024 edition of the tournament marked her fourth appearance at the exhibition contest.
What place did Nelly Korda and her father finish at in the 2024 PNC Championship?
Nelly Korda and her father, Petr, finished at T8 with a score of 20-under. They shared the spot with John Daly and his son, John Daly II and Stewart Cink and his son, Conner Cink.
Team Korda shot seven birdies and an eagle to card nine-under in the first round. After the culmination of the opening day, the pair was four strokes behind the lead.
