Contract confirmed: Nelly Korda accept $980 million contract just to become…

The accomplished golfer will appear in the 2025 issue, but in the meantime, we have incredible behind the scenes shots to share.

As we enjoy the final weeks of the year, of course, we’re also looking ahead to 2025 and all of the exciting events Sports Illustrated Swimsuit has in store. As we’ve announced, next year’s issue will include some of the most impressive women athletes working today, with the team jetting off to The Boca Raton this month to capture what’s turned out to be a gorgeous spread of photos. From golfer Nelly Korda to WNBA player Cameron Brink and so many more, fans are going to be stunned by the photos by Ben Horton.

Korda, who was just named the LPGA Player of the Year, was our first athlete on location this month, donning simple yet classic two-piece suits on the beach and in the water. She wore her hair down in loose beach waves, perfect for the occasion, and kept her glam simple with a pink lip and cheeks. Her dazzling blue eyes didn’t need much makeup to stand out—just enough to accentuate her natural beauty. But enough talking for now; though Korda’s official photo spread won’t be out until the May issue, we do have stunning new behind the scenes shots to share with our readers:

In the behind the scenes shots above, we get to see Horton and Korda work their magic as they capture the perfect beach photos. The 26-year-old, who is currently ranked as the No. 1 female golfer in the world, wore a white two-piece from the brand Vitamin A, which featured a triangle top and cheeky bottoms, both with unique chainlink details. Korda’s toned and tanned abs were on full display, looking picture-perfect against the dreamlike blue water and sky. As evidenced by the photos we’ve seen so far, she’s a natural in front of the camera.

Loving Korda’s bright white suit as much as us? Both pieces are on sale right now at Revolve. Buy the Luxe Link Triangle Bikini Top, $44, and the Luxe Link Cheeky Bikini Bottom, $35. We might be heading into the winter months, but doesn’t that just mean it’s time to start planning a tropical vacation? Korda’s photos are certainly inspiring me to do some travel research.
