“Nelly Korda sets a limit on what she’ll give away at Chevron Championship.”

After the Chevron Championship, Nelly Korda met with young fans, signing memorabilia and giving away personal items like her hat and shoes. However, she humorously refused to part with her socks, drawing a line at that unusual request.

Despite a disappointing start with a 77 in the first round, Korda rebounded to finish tied for 14th. She expressed regret over her limited preparation, citing travel challenges and weather disruptions as obstacles before the tournament began.

Korda acknowledged her decision not to practice more extensively and accepted full responsibility. She emphasized the importance of learning from setbacks, staying resilient, and continuing to adapt despite less-than-ideal circumstances in major championships.
