Nelly Korda recently posted a story on her Instagram on December 19, 2024, where she flaunted her nails with an art matching the Christmas spirit. The LPGA Tour pro shares moments from her personal life, vacations and photoshoots with her fans on her Instagram, where she currently has 1 million followers.
On her Instagram story, Korda shared the post made by Thi Nguyen KC, her nail artist. In the short video, she could be seen showing off her new nail job. The nail tips of her index and little finger resemble the white and red Christmas-themed ribbons. On her middle finger, the nail art reflects the Christmas tree star. To top it off, Korda’s ring fingernail resembles a red Santa hat. Tagging Nelly Korda, KC wrote in the caption:
"Not too much space but we made it @nellykorda"
The golfer is an active Instagram user. Starting from posting stories or posts, Korda keeps her fans updated with everything. Be it glimpses of her posing with her Stanley Cup, sharing moments from the golf course or snippets from her vacations, Korda posts them all. She completed her second year at the Grant Thornton Invitational this year.
Shortly after that, on December 17, she posted a picture on Instagram with her sister. Jessica and Nelly Korda were seen posing for a picture while hugging each other. From the background, it appeared that the sisters were attending a party. The duo wore matching black outfits, with Nelly writing in the caption:
"BFFL"
Nelly Korda and her run at the Grant Thornton Invitational 2024
This mixed golf tournament started on December 13, 2024, at the Tiburón Golf Club in Naples, Florida. With fellow LPGA golfers like Lexi Thompson and Lydia Ko in the tournament, it was Nelly Korda's second year in the Grant Thornton Invitational. After the tournament ended on December 15, she and Daniel Berger finished in 13th spot on the leaderboard.
Berger became Korda’s teammate instead of Tony Finau. The duo coped with the pressure and finished the Grant Thornton Invitational 2024 with a 16-under 200 overall. While talking about her teammate, the LPGA pro appeared to be impressed with Berger's skills on the course. As reported by GolfDigest.com, Korda said:
"I’ll definitely star you on my PGA Tour app. He hit so many fairways, really great iron play, and on top of that he rolls it really well. He checks all the boxes. He has a new fan in me. He’s very much a finesse player.
"We were kind of talking about it on the first day. I never hit my shots really full, and I like to feel it in, and he does the same thing. So I always appreciate that when a player shows his artistic side.”
Although it was not a top 10 for the Rolex Player Of The Year 2024 winner, it was pretty impressive considering the stakes. This year, Tony Finau was supposed to be on the team with Nelly Korda. The six-time PGA winner had to drop out at the last moment. Finau was reportedly facing issues with his knee even after undergoing surgery for a torn meniscus.
