Nelly Korda had the best season of the last decade on the LPGA Tour in 2024. No player had won seven times in a single season since Yani Tseng in 2011.
Such success prompted Nelly Korda to reflect on what it's like to win in professional golf. Speaking with Golf.com's Claire Rogers in January this year, Korda called it a "strange rush of emotion.
Speaking via The Scoop on Youtube, Nelly Korda said:
"There's just like a weird rush of emotions that you have when you're on the last nine holes coming down the stretch, that when you don't have those emotions... you have such a weird low, like, you feel sick. It's so weird, you're not hungry, you're not even sleepy, but you're tired," she said [13:13 onwards].
