Nelly Korda Exposes Golfer Who Body-Shames Her After She Rejected Him, Fans Are Furious and Call Him Immature — Here’s His Name
World No. 1 golfer Nelly Korda has set the sports world buzzing after publicly exposing a fellow golfer who, according to her, has repeatedly body-shamed her ever since she declined his request for a date. The revelation came during a recent interview, where Korda decided she had stayed silent long enough.
According to Nelly, the unnamed-at-the-time golfer would make snide remarks about her appearance during tournaments, practice sessions, and even in casual locker room conversations. She described his behavior as “persistent, childish, and completely unprofessional.”
“I’ve dealt with criticism from fans and the media before, but when it’s someone within our own sport — and it’s personal — that crosses a line,” Korda explained. She went on to say that his remarks started only after she politely turned down his romantic advances.
Shortly after the interview aired, Korda revealed his identity on social media: [Insert Name Here], a fellow professional golfer with multiple tour appearances. The disclosure immediately set off a wave of outrage among her fans and fellow athletes, with many calling for disciplinary action.
“Immature and disrespectful — he should be ashamed of himself,” one fan wrote on X (formerly Twitter). Another commented, “Good for Nelly for speaking up. No woman should have to put up with this nonsense.”
While the exposed golfer has not yet issued an official response, some of his past social media posts resurfaced, showing questionable jokes and comments about other athletes’ appearances. Critics say this pattern proves Nelly’s claims are part of a larger issue of misogyny in professional sports.
Korda’s bold move to name and shame her detractor has been met with overwhelming support from the golfing community. Several fellow golfers — both male and female — praised her for standing up for herself and setting an example for younger athletes facing similar situations.
For Nelly, the decision to go public was about more than just her own experience. “If I stay quiet, it sends the message that this behavior is okay. It’s not. And it never will be,” she stated firmly.
With the story continuing to gain traction, fans are waiting to see if the PGA or other governing bodies will take any action against the golfer in question. One thing is certain: Nelly Korda has made it clear she will not be silenced, on or off the golf course.
