LPGA Legend Nelly Korda Calls out Delta Airlines for Losing Luggage

When you’re the No. 1 golfer in the world, you expect your clubs to make it to the tee box with you. But for Nelly Korda, her latest trip began not with a practice round, but with a plea for help.

On Sunday, the LPGA star called out Delta Airlines on Instagram after all of her luggage went missing en route to Europe.

“And all of my bags are lost! @delta plz help ,” she wrote, overlaying a photo of her lone silver cabinet bag.

Just hours earlier, Korda had posted a cheerful story showing four oversized suitcases and her golf travel bag lined up at the airport.

“Packing light? Idk her! One month on the road. And yes, every bag is overweight,” she joked.

But the mood quickly shifted as she landed with nothing but her TUMI 19 Degree Aluminium Continental Carry-On, a approx. $1,600 bag she carried.

Korda is currently headed to France for the Amundi Evian Championship taking place from July 10th to 13th, followed by the AIG Women’s Open later this month.

With no update yet on whether her clubs have been recovered, the timing couldn’t be worse. Golf bags for elite players aren’t just expensive, they’re essential.

A full pro-level setup can cost between $3,000 and $5,000, not including custom fittings, backup gear, or the emotional toll of losing the tools that define a career.

This isn’t Delta’s first brush with a golf bag blunder.
