Nelly Korda will play in the 2024 PNC Championship starting on Saturday, December 21. As has been the case every time she has played in the event, the world number one will have her father, Petr Korda, as her teammate.

Competing at the highest level is nothing new for Petr Korda, who won two Grand Slam tournaments during his professional tennis career. However, when he competes in the PNC Championship, his nerves seemingly come to the surface, which Nelly finds "funny."

Speaking to the press covering the event, Nelly said:

"I hope he appreciates his good shots... It's funny to see him handle the nerves, especially on the first tee, where he has all the people on the left." [0:23 - 0:32]
