In the Story, a little girl is dressed up as Korda with a golf outfit, cap, and a putter in hand while a young boy is dressed up in golf attire as Scottie Scheffler. The fan captioned the story:

"Day 3 - Champions Day. Sent Nelly Korda off to Kindergarten and Scottie Scheffler off to Pre-K 2."

'Day 3 - Champions Day' likely refers to a theme chosen by parents of the children where the kids dress up as champions or sports icons. Korda reposted the story on her Instagram and wrote:
