Korda turned pro in 2016 after a successful career as an amateur athlete. The Solheim Cup star has since then managed to win a total of 13 times, including 8 victories on the LPGA Tour, and 3 times on the LET. Moreover, she also boasts a major title as the 2021 Women’s PGA Championship winner. And, this season, with just a single win at the Aramco Team Series London, marks her 7th year on the women’s circuit.
The 25-year-old uploaded a post on her Instagram handle a little while back, celebrating the same. She shared snippets of her journey in a series of pictures and videos as she expressed her gratitude for “all the support throughout the entire year” that she received. Moreover, the younger Korda sibling also made sure to mention how it “hasn’t gone unnoticed.”

Adding on in the caption, the athlete revealed how “grateful and lucky beyond belief” she feels for the special people in her life, all the while expressing her enthusiasm to “continue to learn and grow every step of the way with them.”

The amount of support that the American received on the social media handle was nothing short of crazy. Although she had a bad year, her fans kept true to the golfer as they responded with comments, appreciating her latest performance to those wishing the best for her future. Let us take a quick look at some of the reactions.
The 25-year-old was able to hit the second ace of her career at the CME Group Tour Championship in Florida. She was able to pull off the feat on the eighth hole at the Tiburon Golf Club. Moreover, the golfer did so with a 9-iron from 148 yards at the par-3 hole. And, after witnessing the exquisite gameplay, many comments including “Great Ace yesterday … have a wonderful off-season and good luck with whatever is next,” and “Congratulations on the hole in one!!!” came in support of her.
With the single-win year she has experienced, the 8X LPGA Champ would obviously be dejected, finishing at T8 at the event that ended a while back. Well, words of encouragement did come from her followers as one person commented, “Great Job Nelly! Best is yet to come.”
Watching one’s idol on the course, in action, is something everyone hopes to see. And, another fan couldn’t help but express his admiration for the 1X major winner as they said, “You did awesome. Always love seeing you.”
