It is just a matter of a few days before the Solheim Cup starts, and the 24 best European golfers and American golfers go head to head with each other for the highly coveted title, pride, and glory. The pressure on the American squad is greater, as they head to Spain to avenge their previous two losses. All the eyes are set on the American golfers, especially on the LPGA cover girl, Nelly Korda.
The former world number one is making her third appearance in the Solheim Cup, but there is something different this year for her on the team. Her sister, Jessica Korda is not part of the American squad year, but as per the latest update, she will be participating in the Solheim Cup in a special and distinctive way.

Nelly Korda’s sister, Jessica Korda’s special way of participating in the Solheim Cup
Jessica Korda has been on a hiatus for a long time. It started because of her health issues, which had become persistent, and she went on a break to redeem herself. But, recently, she announced that her hiatus is going to continue for the coming months as she is pregnant. The elder Korda sister has been a Solheim Cup member 3 times, two of which she played alongside her sister, Nelly Korda.
This year, for the 18th edition of the Cup, the elder sister is not competing in the Cup, but her younger sister is. But as per the sister duo’s latest collaboration, Jessia Korda will also be a participator in the Solheim Cup, but not as a playing member.
Whoop, a technology-based brand recently announced that it has teamed up with the Korda sisters to release the “Korda Sisters Signature Band” to celebrate the biennial event. In the philanthropic action, a portion of the band proceeds would be donated to the Boys & Girls Club of Sarasota.
