Nelly Korda Reveals Jessica Once Bet $200K on Another Golfer to Beat Her, Fans Shocked —Here’s The Golfer’s Identity
In a recent candid interview, golf star Nelly Korda opened up about a moment from her past that left both her and fans stunned — her sister, fellow pro golfer Jessica Korda, once bet $200,000 on another player to beat her in a major tournament.
“It wasn’t out of hate,” Nelly clarified, laughing. “Jessica thought the other golfer was on fire that week and made a wild bet just for fun. But yeah… it stung a little.”
The revelation has taken fans by surprise, especially given the close bond the Korda sisters are known for on and off the course. While Nelly admitted it “hurt more than she expected,” she said the two laugh about it now — and that it actually motivated her to win that event.
“I ended up winning,” Nelly added with a smile.
“And let’s just say Jessica didn’t place that kind of bet again.”
Golf fans are calling it one of the most unexpected sibling confessions in sports, blending humor, rivalry, and real emotion.
