After Years of Dominating the Golf World, Nelly Korda Reveals the One Passion She’s Been Quietly Nurturing—And Now She’s Finally Ready to Chase It
For years, Nelly Korda has captivated fans with her effortless swing, icy composure under pressure, and a résumé that solidified her place among the greats of women’s golf. But while her dominance on the course made headlines, Korda was quietly tending to a different passion—one that had nothing to do with birdies or backswings.
In a recent interview that caught fans off guard, the world-renowned golfer opened up about her deep-rooted love for interior design—a world of creativity, balance, and aesthetic intuition that she says has always spoken to her. “I’ve always been obsessed with spaces—how they make you feel, how they flow, how design tells a story,” Korda shared. “It’s been a quiet passion of mine for years, something I’ve studied on the side, purely for the love of it.”
What started as a way to unwind between tournaments—flipping through design magazines, sketching ideas, and visiting home stores while on tour—has evolved into a serious interest she’s now ready to pursue professionally when she eventually steps away from the game.
Fans were stunned—not because Korda wasn’t capable of the pivot, but because the move felt so perfectly unexpected. Elegant, thoughtful, and design-driven: just like her approach on the green.
“I don’t want to wait until I retire to start building that world,” she added. “Golf will always be a part of me. But there’s so much more I want to create.”
From major champion to potential creative powerhouse, Nelly Korda is proving once again: greatness isn’t limited to one arena.
