Nelly Korda’s sizzling hot start to the LPGA season has gone cold over the last two months. She hasn’t played a competitive round since the Amundi Evian Championship, where she finished T26 following three straight missed cuts. At Le Golf National, the Team USA star will be hoping to rekindle the form that saw her win six of seven starts between January and May, but she also has other things on her mind. Sweet, delicious things.
Just the like the male golf competitors at this summer’s Paris Games, the women were asked to fill out personal introductions before their opening rounds on Wednesday. Also like many of the men, the world’s best female golfers said their goal was to win a medal for their nation. Korda obviously hopes to do the same, but not before sampling France’s most viral pastry:
Half cookie, half croissant, the hybrid desert was conceived by baker Stephane Louvard earlier this year. It soon took off on TikTok, captivating the world with its flaky, chocolate chip goodness. Crookies are now popping up in bakeries from New York City to San Francisco, but as daring dessert aficionado will tell you, if you want the true experience, you have to go to the source.
Korda has the opportunity to do just that this week, and also hopes to “play some good golf” while she’s at it. Just like Scottie Scheffler, whose Olympic goal was to “have fun,” U.S. golf fans will hope that Korda’s laid-back attitude (and relatable sweet tooth) will help propel her to the top of the podium come Saturday.
