To say the Korda family is exceptionally athletic would be an understatement: sisters Nelly and Jessica are two of the best golfers in the world; their parents, Petr and Regina, are former Czech tennis stars; and then there’s their brother, Sebi, who’s in the spotlight this week at the Australian Open.
While Nelly and Jessica made the jump to golf, Sebastian “Sebi” Korda followed in his parents’ footsteps, becoming a professional tennis player.
The 22-year-old has been ranked as high as No. 30 in the world in the span of his young career. This week, he’s some analysts’ sleeper pick to go far, if not win, the Australian Open.
