Golf superstar Nelly Korda just made a confession that has fans doing a double take — and it has nothing to do with her swing.
In a playful but surprisingly candid interview, Korda admitted to having a lifelong crush on a certain footballer that she says she’ll “never get over,” even if she ends up married one day.
“He’s been my number one since I was a teenager,” Korda laughed. “Even if I’m married, I’ll still love him — it’s harmless!”
Though she didn’t drop the name immediately, fans were quick to speculate, with many pointing fingers at high-profile football stars like Cristiano Ronaldo or Kylian Mbappé. Others hoped it was a less obvious pick — but either way, reactions online were instant.
Some fans swooned over her honesty, calling it “relatable,” while others were left shocked or slightly disappointed, commenting, “She could do way better than that guy.”
While it’s all in good fun, Korda’s confession reminded everyone that even elite athletes aren’t immune to celebrity crushes — and fans are loving this more personal side of the golf queen.
