From the Course to the Café: Nelly Korda Cheers on Charley Hull’s New Venture — and Falls in Love with the Croissants
When golf meets gourmet, it’s a hole-in-one combination — and that’s exactly what happened when world No. 1 golfer Nelly Korda swapped her clubs for a coffee cup to support her close friend and fellow pro Charley Hull, who just opened her own boutique café in the heart of London.
Over the weekend, Korda was spotted at the grand opening of “Hull & Co. Café”, an elegant yet cozy spot blending British charm with European flair. The café, Hull’s latest passion project, celebrates her love for community, good coffee, and homemade pastries — a far cry from the competitive atmosphere of the LPGA Tour.
“I’m so proud of Charley,” Korda said with a laugh. “She’s always been full of energy and ideas, but seeing her turn this into reality is incredible. And honestly… these croissants might be the best I’ve ever had!”
Korda, who recently wrapped up a demanding tournament schedule, looked relaxed and radiant as she chatted with customers, posed for photos, and sampled nearly every pastry on the menu — including Hull’s signature almond croissant and espresso crème tart.
For Hull, the café marks a new chapter beyond golf. “This has been a dream for years,” she shared. “Golf will always be a part of me, but I wanted to create a space that brings people together — somewhere cozy, welcoming, and full of good vibes.”
The café’s interior reflects Hull’s personality perfectly — minimalist décor, soft jazz in the background, and subtle golf-inspired touches like putter handles on the coffee machine and framed photos of iconic tournaments.
As fans gathered outside for a glimpse of the two stars, social media quickly buzzed with photos of Korda enjoying her coffee and pastry. “Nelly’s face after that first bite said it all,” one fan joked on X (formerly Twitter).
Whether on the fairway or at the café table, Nelly Korda and Charley Hull continue to prove that friendship and passion make the sweetest pairing — especially when served warm, with a side of croissants. 🥐💛
