Sebastian Korda and girlfriend Ivana Nedved both come from sporting families
Sebastian Korda and his girlfriend Ivana Nedved both hail from sporting families. Korda's father Petr Korda is a former Grand Slam champion, winning the Australian Open title in 1998. Korda's mother, Regina Rajchrtová, was also a former tennis player, winning two singles titles on the ITF Circuit. The American's sisters Jessica and Nelly Korda are professional golfers.
Ivana Nedved's father is the former Czech footballing legend Pavel Nedved. He won the Ballon d'Or in 2003.
After Korda's quarterfinal match against Ben Shelton at the 2023 Shanghai Masters, he was asked if he felt pressure coming from a family with a rich sporting history. The American said that he did not feel any added pressure as he loves what he does, adding that his sisters also love what they do and that they, too, enjoy it without any pressure.
"I don't think it creates any pressure. In the end, we're all doing kind of what we love to do. Tennis is something that I just love doing. It doesn't matter if it's playing, watching, I watch tennis all day long, basically. I just really enjoy being here, really enjoy playing tennis. Same thing with my sisters, they love doing what they're doing. I don't think there's any pressure with it," Sebastian Korda said in the press conference.
