Nelly Korda reveals her dog’s hilarious reaction to her face mask

Nelly Korda revealed her dog’s reaction to her face mask. The golfer often posts on her online platforms about her golf tournaments and off-course updates. Yesterday, she uploaded a snippet of her skincare and how her furry friend reacted to it on her Instagram handle.

In the story, Nelly was seen in a white top with a face mask on her face. Her dog was on her but wasn't looking at her face. He was looking straight with a blank reaction. With the story, the LPGA phenom wrote a quirky caption:

“Ollie got so scared he had to come protect me.”

Nelly Korda warned her online fans about the fake accounts

On January 11, Nelly Korda shared an informative post on her Instagram account about the rising number of fake accounts in her name. She wrote explicitly that she'd never ask money from people from her social media handles and would never have direct contact with fans.

Korda even shared a photo of a page writing this message and warning about the fake accounts. On the page, her exact words were:

“ I've noticed an increase in fake accounts using my name to try to scam people. Please know I will never ask any of my fans for any money. Any outreach on my behalf is fake and run by scammers. I only use my official social media accounts, @nellykorda (Instagram) and @nellykorda (X), at all times. There are no exceptions. I am not on TikTok.”

She added, “There are numerous fake profiles out there posing as me. If you receive any messages from them, please report them immediately. By staying vigilant and working together, we can help everyone avoid these situations.”

Korda signed beneath the letter to make it formal and authorized by her.
