Nelly Korda, the world-renowned professional golfer, is no stranger to the spotlight—but recently, she revealed a hilarious and embarrassing behind-the-scenes moment from a swimsuit photoshoot that left her blushing.
During a candid interview, Korda opened up about her most cringe-worthy experience while posing for a swimsuit campaign. The athlete, known for her athleticism and grace on the golf course, admitted that she wasn’t entirely prepared for the challenges of being in front of the camera in a swimsuit.
“I thought I had everything under control, but then, things just went south,” Nelly recalled. “It was one of those moments where you wish you could just disappear.”
The embarrassing moment occurred when a wardrobe malfunction caught her off guard. As she struck a pose, the swimsuit she was wearing didn’t quite cooperate, and what followed was a minor but very public mishap. The scene was made even more awkward when the photographer, trying to capture the perfect shot, gave an unexpected direction that threw Nelly off her game.
“I was trying to stay professional, but the swimsuit wasn’t fitting right, and then I heard the photographer say, ‘Now, pretend the wind is blowing your hair,’” she laughed. “And, of course, the wind was going the opposite way. I couldn’t stop laughing!”
Despite the cringe-worthy moment, Nelly handled the situation with her trademark sense of humor and poise. The shoot continued, and in the end, the final images turned out stunning. But for Korda, the memory still brings a blush to her cheeks.
While most fans know her for her golf achievements, this behind-the-scenes story shows another side of the athlete—one that’s relatable and, well, human. Korda’s ability to laugh at herself in these awkward moments is what makes her even more endearing to her fans.
“I think everyone has those embarrassing moments. You just have to laugh at them and move on,” she said with a smile.
Nelly’s candidness about the mishap serves as a reminder that even the most polished professionals have their own offbeat moments—and it’s these moments that make us all a little more connected.
