LPGA Tour Star Nelly Korda Named Newest Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Model
Nelly Korda, the No. 1 women’s golfer in the world, can officially add a new title to her résumé. On Saturday morning, the LPGA Tour star was unveiled as the latest model for Sports Illustrated Swimsuit.
SI Swimsuit announced this news by sharing a photo from Korda’s shoot in Boca Raton. The iconic magazine revealed that all of her swimsuit pictures will be revealed in the 2025 issue.
MJ Day, the editor in chief for SI Swimsuit, has teased that Korda won’t be the only high-profile athlete featured in next year’s magazine.
“We are thrilled to launch our shoot season for the 2025 issue with an extraordinary lineup of powerful female athletes,” Day said. “This remarkable group, featuring Olympic medalists, world champions, and record holders, embodies the next generation of all-stars poised to transform the world of sports. They defy stereotypes and champion equality, inspiring young girls to envision themselves as both athletes and leaders. At SI Swimsuit, we’ve always celebrated the future of women, and there’s no better way to honor these remarkable achievements than by featuring them on the pages of our issue.”
For now though, the spotlight is on Korda.
