Copy these 4 moves from Nelly Korda to chip it close every time
The runaway leader in the Rolex Women’s World Golf ranking, Nelly Korda, had a five-tourney win streak earlier this season — a surprising burst except to those who have followed her progress for the last several years. The 13-time tour winner and two-time major champ — and gold medal winner at the 2020 Summer Olympics — came out of the gate hot on the LPGA Tour, winning during her first pro season at the ripe age of 20 in the fall of 2018.
Truth be told, Nelly was destined for sports greatness, being the daughter of Czech tennis stars Petr Korda and Regina Rajchrtová. That DNA also courses through her LPGA-star sister, Jessica, and their brother, Sebastian, a highly ranked tennis pro.
Nelly’s swing technique is widely thought of as a model of efficiency. In the off case where she misses a green, here’s how she continues that efficiency with a no-nonsense chip swing. Copy her four key moves and card more up-and-downs your next round.
