Mic’d Up Nelly Korda’s Unseen Solheim Cup Moments Go Viral; Frenzied Netizens Clamor for More: ‘Joy to Watch’
No other event in women’s golf brings the masses together like the Solheim Cup! And when it is headed by the 2024 star player and the world no. 1 Nelly Korda, the excitement level of the audience will surely be soaring high. In the first two days of the 19th Solheim Cup, Korda won all three sessions she was part of and earned three crucial points for Team USA. On the second day, captain Stacy Lewis decided to give the 14-time LPGA Tour winner a break as she did not participate in the Saturday Fourballs.
However, that does not mean that Korda did not have fun. The 26-year-old was mic’d up during the second day, previously Megan Khang and Lexi Thompson were also mic’d up for some of the fans. In the video, the 2-time major winner can be seen enjoying the music on the first tee and talking with teammates. The 26-year-old talked with her captain as Lewis told her that her 360 selfie video at the first tee turned out cool and Korda couldn’t contain her excitement at seeing the results.
At one point, Korda met a young fan named Keegan as Lauren Coughlin introduced the two. She was the daughter of No Laying Up director, Kevin Van Valkenburg. And as Coughlin revealed, she was an amateur golfer and had a great swing. Korda acknowledged it as she excitedly said, “I like your hat. No Laying Up, baby!” She also had fun conversations with the team caddies, where one was purely not drinking water, as he claimed.
