Move over Williams sisters — the Korda sisters are stealing the spotlight on the golf course. And Nelly Korda’s latest comments about her older sister Jessica are giving fans all the sibling rivalry drama they crave — with a touch of love, of course.
After a recent tournament where Nelly narrowly edged out Jessica by just one stroke, reporters asked the younger Korda how it felt to compete against family. Her answer? “It’s like a backyard brawl — only with caddies and TV cameras,” she laughed. “We push each other, and that’s why we’re both still climbing.”
Fans were quick to weigh in, flooding social media with side-by-side swing clips, highlight reels, and even memes dubbing the duo “The Kordashians of Golf.” One viral comment read, “No sisters are doing it like these two. Period.”
Jessica responded to the chatter with her own cheeky take, saying, “If I can’t win, I’d rather it be her. But don’t get it twisted — I’m still coming for that trophy.”
The LPGA has leaned into the storyline, spotlighting the Korda sisters in promotional material and even teasing a possible “Korda Cup” mini-series. With both sisters ranked in the top 15 and playing some of their best golf, fans are getting a front-row seat to a sibling rivalry that’s as heartwarming as it is competitive.
And beyond the rivalry, the respect is crystal clear. “We’re each other’s biggest fans,” Nelly said. “Even when we’re fighting for the same title.”
Golf needs stars. Golf needs stories. And right now, the Korda sisters are giving us both in high-definition. Don’t blink — you might miss the next chapter in one of the sport’s most electrifying family sagas.
