On the 5th (local time), she posted a photo on her social networking service (SNS) holding fingers tightly with her newborn son, Grayson John Delfret. It is reported that she gave birth on the 4th. Korda married Johnny Delfret (USA), a former professional golfer turned businessman, whom she had dated for a long time, in December 2021. She retired from the tour and began preparing for childbirth in the first half of last year. On the 28th of last month, her younger sister Nelly was captured cheering with a full-term belly when she won the LPGA Tour Drive On Championship in a playoff against Lydia Ko (New Zealand).


Korda debuted on the LPGA Tour in 2011 and has accumulated six career wins. She has finished in the top 10 forty-four times and earned a total prize money of $7,605,903 (approximately 10.1 billion KRW). She represented the United States alongside Nelly at the Tokyo Olympics held in 2021. She is a popular player known for both her beauty and skill. Due to injuries, she has not achieved significant results since winning the Tournament of Champions (TOC) in 2021. The Cognizant Founders Cup in May 2023 was her last tournament appearance. No plans for a return to the field have been announced yet.
