Notably, Nelly Korda played with her father at the popular PNC Championship 2024. The tournament featured a stellar field of players, including John Daly and Tiger Woods, and was held at The Ritz-Carlton Golf Club.

During the press conference of the tournament on December 20, 2024, Korda revealed how her father Petr, who is a retired tennis player, motivated her and fueled her passion. She said (via ASAP Sports):

"They always wanted us to be passionate about something, to find what we truly love. Golf was something that he started playing after tennis, and it was something that we could all do together.
"My sister is five years older than I am, and she was definitely one of my role models in life, so anything she did, I wanted to do. It was a great time for us to spend great quality family time together. But yeah, we were never pushed into tennis. We skied in the winters. I figure skated. I did gymnastics. We kind of dabbled a little bit in everything. But at the end of the day, we were passionate about golf, and that's the route that we took," she added.

Nelly Korda is most likely to return to play in an official golf tournament with the LPGA Tour's Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions. The tournament will take place from January 30 to February 2 in Orlando, Florida.
