The American professional was spotted celebrating National Coffee Day in a series of videos uploaded by the official Instagram handles of TaylorMade Golf. As an endorser of the sports equipment manufacturing company’s team, Korda revealed her “pick-me-up” drink before a round.
Continuing on her revelation, the 1X major champion disclosed how she likes her coffee-order to be a “flat white”, a blend of foamed milk poured over a shot of expresso. Adding to her response, the golfer conveyed how she usually goes around the various coffee shops in the cities she visits in a bid to buy the drink.
