Nelly Korda styles brown outfit while promoting Tumi Travel in new post

Last year, Korda partnered with Tumi Travel when she was announced as the brand’s first golf ambassador, joining two-time PGA Tour winner Ludvig Aberg. Both golfers now travel with the brand's luggage and backpacks while on tour.

Tumi Travel recently launched a new campaign called Icons Tested, starring Korda. To mark the launch, the Bradenton native shared an Instagram post where she wore a brown outfit while promoting the campaign.

In the post, Nelly Korda sported a coffee brown dress while standing against a gray backdrop. She paired the look with a pair of black shoes and posed with a Tumi Travel backpack in her hand.

In the caption, the three-time LET winner reflected on golf, saying it has taught her that true strength comes from focus, patience, and the determination to keep climbing to new heights. She added that she was excited to celebrate that same “drive” with Tumi Travel, tagging the brand in her post.

Speaking about the Icons Tested campaign, Nelly Korda explained that, for her, being iconic doesn’t mean being perfect. On the contrary, it’s about staying committed to your path and finding meaning in the small moments that add up over time.

The 15-time LPGA Tour winner also acknowledged that her journey is always evolving, which is why she values having trusted people around her to lean on during challenging times.
