With SI Swimsuit’s Net Worth Series: Empowering Equal Pay, our goal is to shine a light on incredible athletes while examining income disparities and promoting equal pay across industries.
Nelly Korda is only 26 years old, but the Bradenton, Fla., native has already achieved some incredible feats. The athlete is currently the No. 1-ranked female golfer in the world, with 14 LPGA wins under her belt. An Olympian, Korda earned a gold medal at the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo, and was a member of the U.S. women’s national golf team during the 2024 summer games in Paris.
And just last week, Korda was announced as SI Swimsuit’s first athlete for the 2025 issue. She was photographed in Boca Raton, Fla., by visual artist Ben Horton for the occasion. Below, we’re taking a look at Korda’s net worth, brand partnerships and more.
How did Nelly Korda get her start?
Korda first started playing golf at the age of 6, and qualified for the U.S. Women’s Open as an amateur in 2013. She turned pro just three years later, at the age of 18, and joined the LPGA Tour in 2017. During her rookie year, Korda played in 23 events and had five top-10 finishes. Korda won her first LPGA Tour event (the Swinging Skirts LPGA Taiwan Championship presented by CTBC) in 2018, and has since claimed a total of 14 tournament wins, including two majors.
Korda was named the 2024 Rolex Player of the Year by the LPGA earlier this month, an accomplishment she acknowledged “means so much.”
“This season has had its highs and challenges, and I’m just really grateful for the people around me who have helped me get here,” she stated in a press release. “It’s been a team effort, and I’m proud to share this moment with them.”
