Despite Occasional “Want to Punch You” Jokes, Nelly Korda Proves Her Love for Caddie With Special 8-Word Message
The whole golf community is aware of how close the LPGA players are to each other. Take Nelly Korda and Meghan Khang’s friendship for example, the duo defines what it means to be there for each other. However, many do not know but Korda is also very close to her caddie Jason McDede, as well. The world’s no. 1 golfer is known to have a bubbly personality on the course, but let’s face it even the brightest stars have dull days.
That’s when her caddie McDede jumps in to save the day. Although the golfer is very appreciative of McDede’s efforts, but let’s be real, having relentless optimism can be a bit much sometimes. Surely, you have one of those friends who are just a bit too positive for you to handle? Yes, that’s what McDede is to Korda. So much so that the golfer has jokingly admitted that she wants to “punch him” when she’s having a bad day. “He’s such a positive person that sometimes I’m like, ‘Gosh, you’re so positive. I want to punch you.’ As golfers, no one’s ever positive all the time”, she said, previously.
But does that mean the golfer is not thankful for her caddie? No, not at all! Korda recently posted a photo of her shaking hands with McDede on her Instagram story as a birthday tribute and the best part was the caption. Korda started by thanking McDede for always being there for her and wrote an eight-word message saying “Man that wears many hats in my life”. This just shows how much the duo means to each other. “Here’s to making more “bets” on the golf course @jasonmedede HAVE THE BEST DAY”, the caption continued.
