Nelly Korda gives out a 4-word message as Sebastian Korda makes special announcement 

Nelly Korda had a heartfelt reaction after her brother, tennis star Sebastian Korda, announced his engagement to longtime partner Ivana Nedved. She has been by his side for most of his career, dating back to before his appearance at the 2021 Next Gen ATP Finals presented by PIF.

On Monday, Sebastian shared the news on Instagram with a collage of Polaroid photos featuring the couple. The post, captioned “Forever and then some 🤍,” confirmed their engagement after years of dating.

Nelly Korda quickly celebrated the announcement, resharing her brother’s post on her Instagram story with a simple four-word message:

“Love this so much !”

Korda is taking a break from the LPGA Tour and joined her family in celebrating Sebastian’s milestone. Her last appearance came at the LOTTE Championship presented by Hoakalei, where she finished tied for fourth at 14-under. She is still searching for her first win of the 2025 season. Despite a string of steady performances in 17 starts, including several top-10 finishes and two runner-up results, her ranking has dropped from World No. 1 to No. 2.

When Nelly Korda teased Sebastian Korda about his “love” for her

Nelly Korda and her brother Sebastian often share glimpses of their fun sibling dynamic. Earlier this year, the LPGA star posted a hilarious text exchange with the tennis player on Instagram. Sebastian began by sending a heartfelt “Love you,” before quickly following up with a request for her TV subscription password. Nelly reshared the message with the caption:

“Do you love me or my subscriptions?”

Recovering from a stress fracture after the 2025 French Open, Sebastian Korda has been spending more time on the golf course. In August, he joined Nelly for a round, where she filmed him hitting a shot and captioned it:

“Hits it to 3ft @sebastiankorda.” Sebastian replied, “Was indeed the right club.”

Sebastian's growing interest in golf isn’t surprising. He has often joked about needing “all the tips in the world” and admitted that his putting “is really, really bad.” While in Madrid, he even talked about wanting to try out local golf courses.

The 25-year-old finished his season strong, winning three matches in Athens and pushing Nitto ATP Finals qualifier Lorenzo Musetti to match points before losing. Now ranked No. 48 in the PIF ATP Rankings, Sebastian continues the Korda family legacy, with father Petr Korda a former Australian Open champion, and sisters Nelly and Jessica established on the LPGA Tour.
