Nelly Korda made an unexpected appearance at the Dunvegan bar in St. Andrews, just hours after her heartbreaking loss at the AIG Women’s Open. Despite a tough final round where she lost the lead in the last few holes, Korda chose to visit the famed pub located near the Old Course’s 18th green.
Known for its warm, welcoming atmosphere and iconic status in the golfing world, the Dunvegan provided Korda with a space to decompress after the disappointment. Dressed casually, she was seen posing with the bartenders, wearing a sweatshirt that read, “It costs zero dollars to be a nice person.”
Korda’s visit to the Dunvegan was particularly surprising given the emotional toll of her loss. After falling just short in one of the most prestigious tournaments in golf, many would have expected her to retreat from the public eye. Instead, she opted for a quiet evening at one of St. Andrews’ most beloved establishments, a decision that reveals a glimpse of her resilience and humility.
While the details of her time there remain unclear, her presence alone spoke volumes, highlighting how even in moments of defeat, she remains connected to the game and its community.
