Nelly Korda Lists Her Favorite Golf Courses Around the World, Number (2) Is Surprisingly Majority Of Fans’ Favorite Too

Nelly Korda, one of the most recognizable faces in women’s golf, has taken fans on a global tour of her personal favorite golf courses—and while her list reflects her elite status and worldly experience, the surprise came when fans strongly agreed with one of her top picks: number 2 on her list.

From championship-level layouts to courses full of nostalgia and personal meaning, Nelly’s choices offered a glimpse into the places that shaped her as both a golfer and a person. But what stood out most? The course she ranked second is also the one fans across social media and forums said they loved watching her play on most.

Nelly’s Favorite Golf Courses: A Blend of Beauty, Challenge & Memories
Augusta National, USA
Though it remains off-limits for female pros in major events, Nelly called Augusta the ultimate dream. “Just walking the grounds there is special. It represents the heart of golf tradition,” she said.
Evian Resort Golf Club, France (Fan Favorite)
This was the biggest talking point. Nelly placed Evian second—but fans overwhelmingly claimed it was their favorite place to see her compete. Nestled in the French Alps overlooking Lake Geneva, the Amundi Evian Championship venue is as picturesque as it is technical. “It feels like a postcard—but don’t let the beauty fool you. That course tests everything,” Nelly said.
Royal Melbourne, Australia
Praised for its fast greens and unpredictable coastal conditions, Royal Melbourne is where Nelly says she matured as a player. “It forces you to think every shot through. It’s pure strategy.”
Pebble Beach, USA
A classic on any golfer’s list. “It’s hard not to get lost in the views, but you’ve got to stay sharp,” Nelly shared. “There’s a reason this course is iconic.”
Mission Hills, China
This massive complex played a huge role in her junior career. “It was my first international trip as a competitor. It’s got history, heart, and hustle.”
Why Fans Chose Evian Too
After Nelly’s list dropped, fans on X (formerly Twitter), Reddit, and Instagram polls rallied behind Evian as their top choice—mirroring Nelly’s #2 pick.
Why? A few recurring reasons stood out:

Aesthetic Appeal: “That course with the Alps in the background is cinema,” one fan wrote.
Memorable Wins: Several fans recalled Nelly’s best performances and clutch moments unfolding at Evian.
Fashion Moments: Her outfits during Evian week are a fan-favorite. “She always brings the tenniscore vibe to golf there,” joked one follower.
Courses That Tell a Story
For Nelly, golf courses aren’t just places to compete—they’re pages in her career journal. Each one has offered her something unique: pressure, peace, personal growth.

“Every course changes you a little bit. Some make you tougher, others remind you to enjoy the ride,” she said.

And for fans, being along for that ride—especially at Evian—makes it all the more meaningful.
