Nelly Korda has never been one to shy away from setting the bar high — and now, the world No. 1 golfer is proving that her ambitions go far beyond the fairways. In a candid new interview, the 26-year-old star opened up about five personal and professional goals she’s determined to achieve before she turns 30.
With just a few years left before that milestone, Korda is embracing a mindset of focus, gratitude, and relentless determination. “I believe in pushing yourself, dreaming big, and chasing growth,” she said. “Turning 30 isn’t something I fear — it’s something I want to meet head-on, knowing I gave it everything.”
So, what exactly are her five must-achieve goals? Here’s what she shared:
1. Win All Five Women’s Golf Majors
While she’s already claimed multiple major titles, Korda dreams of completing the full sweep of all five. “I want to leave a legacy in the game, not just stats,” she stated.
2. Represent Team USA at the Olympics Again – And Win Gold

3. Launch a Foundation Supporting Girls in Sports
Nelly is passionate about giving back. She revealed plans to create a foundation focused on empowering young girls in sports through access, mentorship, and resources. “I was lucky to have support growing up — now I want to pass it on.”
4. Travel to Five New Countries – Without a Golf Club
Though she’s traveled the world through tournaments, Korda wants to experience cultures outside the course. “I want to be a traveler, not just a competitor,” she said with a smile.
5. Start Writing a Book
Whether it’s a memoir or a motivational project, Korda dreams of telling her story — not just the victories, but the struggles, fears, and lessons behind the scenes. “One day, I want people to know the full journey. Not just the highlight reels.”
Fans were quick to react to the list with admiration, calling it “inspiring,” “bold,” and “so authentically Nelly.” Many praised her mix of competitive ambition and personal depth, showing she’s not just chasing trophies — but a meaningful life.
