Nelly Korda suffers same fate as Charley Hull, being forced to send a public statement to save people from “scammers”
Nelly Korda recently shared a statement through her Instagram profile on January 11, 2025, where she warned her fans against alleged scammers. The LPGA Tour pro is an active Instagram user and currently, she has 1 million followers there.
In the post, Korda explained to her fans about the incident which made her release a public statement.
