In June 2021, Athanasiou was there to celebrate Korda’s victory at the Meijer LPGA Classic at the Blytheville Country Club. The adorable couple was spotted stealing a kiss after Korda won the championship. After that, they posed together for a picture.
The relationship is out in the open; however, the couple has managed to keep their personal life private. There is little news available about them together except their Instagram accounts, which contain pictures proving their love for each other. We all know Korda is a brilliant golfer with a gold medal. Similarly, Athanasiou is also a renowned NHL professional, who was drafted 110th overall by the Detroit Red Wings in 2012 during the NHL Entry Draft.
