After John Daly & Scottie Scheffler, Nelly Korda Joins The Halloween Party Through a Young Fan’s Iconic Move
Does Halloween reveal the true icons of golf, with kids choosing Korda and Daly over superheroes?
Nelly Korda is an inspiration to millions in the golf world, and it’s easy to see why. Although she’s been absent from the greens for a while, missing back-to-back tournaments since September, her stardom remains undiminished. Fans are practically counting down the days until her much-anticipated comeback!
With Halloween fever in full swing, everyone is getting into the spirit of the season with some dramatic and spooky costumes.
But some fans choose to honor their idols instead, and Korda is definitely a fan favorite. One adorable fan dressed her daughter as “mini Nelly Korda,” complete with a pink long-sleeved top, a cute mini skirt, and, of course, Korda’s signature high bun under a golf cap.
In a sweet touch, the little girl walked alongside her dad, who posed as her caddie with “Korda” written on his shirt. The video of the delightful duo was captioned: “Nelly Korda’s mini for Halloween. Thanks for inspiring our girl golfer, Nelly!”
This isn’t the first time a junior golfer has shown love for Korda on Halloween. Back in 2022, an 11-year-old dressed up as the LPGA star, shared a heartfelt message on Instagram about how Korda inspired her, along with a video of her swinging a club with all the confidence in the world. And this year, another little fan joined the fun, dressing in an all-white golf skirt and polo, while a kid beside her posed as the World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler.
It seems like dressing as World No.1 is becoming a Halloween trend! But the veterans are also no behind in being ‘fans favorite.
Junior fan impersonated the legendary John Daly
John Daly is a guy known for his flamboyant personality, and honestly, if Halloween were about winning competitions, anyone could score big by dressing up as him! One young fan really nailed it, pulling off Daly’s iconic look in a way that would make the veteran golfer proud. You could just imagine Daly getting a kick out of it!
The fan wore blue and red pants resembling the American flag, along with a red polo shirt. The kid also wore a white wig to match Daly’s hairstyle and held a fake cigarette to complete the OG look. And the cherry on top, he posed with a golf club in one hand wearing sunglasses. Daly spotted the tribute when Loudmouth, his clothing brand, shared it, and he couldn’t help but repost it on his stories!
While golfers are being impersonated as idols, they also made sure to make this Halloween memorable by donning some bizarre outfits. For instance, Rory McIlroy dressed up as Mario, and Korda shared a photo on her Instagram as Master Splinter. Meanwhile, her sister Jessica Korda, her husband, and their son all joined in as the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!.
Indeed, everyone had fun, and it’s great to see Korda finally recovering from her neck injury as well. How did you celebrate your Halloween? Let us know in the comments!
