Jordan Spieth Makes a 4-Word Statement to His Dad and Compares Nelly Korda to a Former Masters Champion

PNC Championship has hit the ground of the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club in Orlando, Florida. Due to this, LPGA stalwart, Nelly Korda, has become the talk of the town. Now you may wonder, the PNC Championship is a family event; Why was Korda the only one in the limelight? PGA pro, Jordan Spieth, has given her incredible respect with his words.

The three-time major championship winner, and his father, Shawn Spieth, are participating in the PNC Championship for the first time. However, the duo has been practicing for the last six weeks for the same event. And since it was the first time, Spieth had a pro tip for his father. Spieth’s father believes that despite not being an outstanding golfer, he has been trying his best for the past few weeks. And now he might be double as well as he was before six weeks. However, he was still going; he had a long way to go in the sport.

But thankfully, senior Spieth will have some benefit at PNC paired with his son. They will play alongside Korda and her father, Petr. For Round 1 at the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club, the advantage will be having one of the game’s most fundamentally sound and visually attractive swings.

Let’s figure out the pro tip Spieth gave his father, and why he appreciated Korda.

What did Jordan Spieth say about Nelly Korda?

Korda is the pride of the LPGA and an inspiration to all female golfers. Her tremendous showcase of golf skills at the Olympics landed her a gold medal. No one can deny her consistency and hard work. And above all, no one can unsee her significant golf swings. The PGA pro is a fan of Korda’s swings, and to win the championship, he wants to follow Korda’s swings.

While appreciating Korda for her swings, he said that her swings were very smooth. Playing with Korda, he feels like playing with the golf legend Adam Scott.

He said, “It’s like playing with Adam Scott. She swings it so sweet.” According to him, when they play together, he believes that his father will watch the tempo of Korda’s swing and learn from it.
