PGA Tour Players React to Nelly Korda’s Success

Juliana hung has record-setting first round at the ioa championship despite difficult conditions.

  • Nelly Korda

social tours kathmandu

Nelly Korda’s five consecutive LPGA Tour victories have taken the golf world by storm in recent weeks, even catching the eye of some of her male counterparts on the PGA Tour. Take a look at what they had to say about the Rolex Women’s World Golf Rankings No. 1’s success over the past few months.

Scottie Scheffler

“One of the people here asked me, is this turning into a competition between you and Nelly, and I was like, I don't know, man. I think if it's a competition, she's got me pretty beat right now. Five wins in a row. She had that T16 at the beginning of the year, which was just terrible. I can't believe she did that. It's pretty special stuff. To win four times in a row and then show up at a major championship and win is extremely impressive. I'm extremely happy for her. I think we've all seen the golf swing. I wish I could see it more in person, but we don't really run into them too much outside of some TaylorMade shoots and stuff like that. Some great golf, some historic stuff, and hopefully she keeps it up.”

“She finished T16 in her first event this year and the other five she's won. I don't know if I can quite relate to that. That's some pretty serious golf. I'm extremely happy for her and proud of her. That's some pretty special stuff. It's been a treat to watch.”

Billy Horschel

“I had a three-week stretch where I finished second, first, first, and I thought I was something special at that time, but what Nelly and Scottie are doing is unreal. I can't imagine that. And over a period of time, not just five weeks in a row, they've done over six, seven, eight weeks. It's unreal golf. To think about who they're playing against in today's generation of more talented players and doing what they're still doing, I'd say we're not going to see anything like that again, but I'm sure we will. You have to stand up and applaud them because it's pretty special. As a golf fan, I'm just lucky to be able to see that because, at the end of the day, I'm a golf fan at heart.”

J.T. Poston

“I don't know her personally, but five in a row is pretty impressive, and that was a major (Sunday), right; is that correct? That's pretty impressive. Obviously, what Scottie has been doing has been pretty impressive, and for her to reel off five in a row, that's hard to fathom.”

Wyndham Clark

“To win five in a row is amazing. Especially one being a major that she just won. Kudos to her. She's playing amazing and clearly the best female in the world.”

Tim McGraw's special guest during concert at Bridgestone Arena? The Stanley Cup

social tours kathmandu

Tim McGraw liked the Stanley Cup. He loved it. But Tim McGra w made sure not to touch it.

That would be bad luck, according to hockey folklore.

Before the country music star performed his hit song — and the Nashville Predators ' goal song — "I Like It, I Love It" during his concert Thursday night at Bridgestone Aren a, McGraw teased a "special guest" to his audience.

"Hold on," he said. "It will be worth the wait."

Soon after, a white-gloved man named Philip Pritchard , whose title is Keeper of the Cup, emerged from a black curtain on stage, trophy in tow.

All things Predators: Latest Nashville Predators news, schedule, roster, stats, injury updates and more.

He placed it on a table that was covered by a NHL-branded tablecloth, less than 24 hours before the Predators were to face the Vancouver Canucks in Game 3 of their first-round NHL playoffs series in the same building.

'I Like It, I Love It'

Then McGraw broke into song.

Spent 48 dollars last night at the county fairI throwed out my shoulder, but I won her that teddy bear

Standing front stage, McGraw eventually extended his arms, lifted them toward the sky and continued to sing.

By now, most of the sellout crowd was, too.

ESTES: Lucky? Good? Doesn't matter. It's now the Nashville Predators' series to lose

But I like it, I love it, I want some more of itI try so hard, I can't rise above it

McGraw performed 20 songs during the 90-plus minute concert, which is part of his Standing Room Only Tour.

Social media reacts to Stanley Cup

Not everyone was a fan of Stanley Cup being in Bridgestone, though.

Hockey folklore again.

A brief look at Twitter showed some mixed reactions.

Kathmandu has a very rich history, dating back centuries. In the span of a day, work your way through its around 2000-year-old history, starting at the oldest Buddhist structure in the morning, and then understanding how the arts developed here, the ancient markets that were part of the salt route, the advent of the Hippies that brought in tourism and rock and roll, to how Kathmandu is using ancient heritage in a modern way.

0800 hrs: Pick up and drive to Swyambhunath - upper parking. From here we will start our journey. A small climb of steps to the top of Soyambhunath will take us about 1500 years back where the history of the valley starts.

Once we do this, we shall then walk down to the parking lot and drive to Kathmandu Durbar Square, to wander around understanding the architecture and arts renaissance under the Malla Kings, before sidestepping into Freak Street - where the Hippies arrived in the 60's... Our lunch will be around this area.

Around 1330 hrs - we shall drive to Baber Mahal Revisited to showcase how ancient heritage is being used in a modern shopping complex... these are royal stables from the Ranas, one of the more recent rulers of Nepal.

After a leisurely wander around here, we will head back to drop point.

Highlights:

  • Discover the entire evolution of valley
  • Walk through Old Freak Street - Hippe Hub
  • Stunning architecture and diverse culture
  • Exquisite and mixed local markets.

Write to us at  [email protected]  if you want to participate in these online experiences, and we can work out a suitable time.

Day Tours | What to carry

The day tours are the ones where you have to worry the least about what to carry. However, some information is always helpful.

  • A light jacket or a warm jacket (depending on time of year and how cold you generally get)
  • An umbrella or a rain jacket. You never know
  • Some money (in case a souvenir tempts you, or you want to have a drink)
  • A water bottle (water is available for purchase everywhere, though we do not recommend purchasing plastic bottles - garbage is a nuisance in Nepal.
  • Comfortable clothes - shorts are also fine of course..
  • Comfortable shoes - trainers are best!

Gogoro battery-swapping electric scooters continue international expansion.

Avatar for Micah Toll

Gogoro has been on a roll lately, showing off a steady stream of new scooter models and simultaneously expanding its markets into new countries. Now, the battery-swapping electric scooter leader is adding another pin to the map: Nepal.

Gogoro’s e-scooters are most famous for their battery-swapping architecture, with the company’s iconic green and black battery modules serving as the basis for hundreds of thousands of battery swaps each day.

Based in Taiwan, Gogoro has regularly expanded into new countries by partnering with local energy companies. To reach the Nepalese market, Gogoro teamed up with Nebula Energy, a wholly-owned subsidiary of MG Group. As a new energy venture, Nebula is committed to leading the way towards an environmentally sustainable and energy-independent Nepal.

Nebula Energy joined Gogoro at a joint press event in Kathmandu today, where Nepal’s first battery-swapping station is located. Nebula now becomes an authorized and exclusive partner of Gogoro in the country.

“Gogoro is at the forefront of sustainable urban transportation, and together, we plan to contribute to Nepal’s zero-emission targets through this new age of sustainable energy, mobility, and technology,” said Manoj Goyal, chairman of Nebula Energy. 

social tours kathmandu

Along with rolling out battery-swapping stations, Gogoro is bringing its new Crossover GX250 electric scooter to the country.

The Gogoro Crossover GX250 electric scooter, launched late last year , has been referred to as the first two-wheeled SUV for its utility design that enables heavier cargo-duty and off-road riding. Both are key features for the Nepal market.

“We are proud to be partnering with an industry leader like Nebula Energy who shares our vision for accelerating the electric transformation of Nepal’s two-wheel transportation industry. Nepal is at the forefront of clean energy generation and utilization and is actively promoting two- and four-wheel EV adoption and our partnership is sure to make a significant impact,” said Horace Luke, founder and CEO of Gogoro. “Together, Gogoro and Nebula Energy share a vision for accelerating the electric transformation of Nepal’s two-wheel transportation industry. Gogoro battery swapping is optimized to provide convenient Swap & Go access to Gogoro Smart Batteries in seconds. Gogoro’s new Gogoro CrossOver GX250 is optimized for riders in Nepal with more seating and storage space and better ground clearance.”

gogoro battery swap

Similarly to many other countries that Gogoro has expanded into over the last few years, the first Gogoro scooters in Nepal will be used in B2B applications. Gogoro’s electric scooters have proven popular with delivery and courier services , whose riders often spend all day riding throughout both urban and rural areas, and thus rely on battery swapping to ‘refuel’ even quicker than a conventional gas station fill-up for combustion engine motorcycles and scooters.

Gogoro’s battery-swapping GoStations will be rolled out every two to three kilometers (one to two miles) in the Kathmandu valley.

However, Nebula plans to begin offering Gogoro’s electric scooters at consumer retail locations by the end of this year.

Electrek’s Take

Every time I hear of another Gogoro expansion, I get even more encouraged about the ability to actually reduce transportation emissions on a global scale. While it’s nice to see electric cars hitting the road in the West, there are hundreds of millions of polluting two and four-stroke scooters and motorcycles in Asia that have a much larger impact on air quality and carbon emissions. Focusing on those vehicles seems like low-hanging fruit, especially considering how much fewer resources are required to produce a scooter than a car.

The Gogoro Crossover GX250 is a particularly interesting model, and I even had the chance to try one around Taiwan last month (more on that coming soon). It’s got the power to climb curvy mountain roads, something I can attest to personally, but is also rugged enough for off-road trails or lashing a family’s week-worth of groceries and goods to the bike. So that model heading to Nepal makes a lot of sense.

I often have people asking me when Gogoro will come to Europe or North America. From everything I can see, Asia still seems to be Gogoro’s priority, though a recent expansion into Latin America is a promising sign. But the Asian markets are simply too ripe for the company to focus elsewhere yet. Two-wheelers dominate so many Asian countries, which is why Gogoro can have a much bigger impact there. I could see the possibility of Gogoro eventually coming to Europe, where scooters and motorcycles are a larger part of the commuter landscape than in North America. But for the US, I don’t think we should hold our breath for a Gogoro entry anytime soon, unfortunately.

West Indies cricketers load luggage in small van in Nepal: Judgemental video slammed

West indies a tour of nepal: a viral video of touring west indies cricketers loading their own luggage in a small truck upon their arrival in nepal went viral. zimbabwe cricketer sikandar raza slammed the judgemental outlook of a few on social media about the reception given the touring side..

Listen to Story

West Indies cricketers in Nepal

  • West Indies tour Nepal for the first time in the history of the sport
  • A West Indies A side, led by Roston Chase, will play 5 T20s in Kirtipur
  • West Indies players were seen loading their own luggage into a mini truck upon arrival

Zimbabwe cricketer Sikandar Raza slammed a section of fans on social media who were judgemental about the reception that West Indies cricket players received upon their arrival in Nepal for a 5-match T20 series. A video of the luggage of West Indies players being loaded in a mini-truck went viral on social media on Thursday and quite a few took a dig at Nepal for not arranging better facilities for the touring team.

Sikandar Raza said he is fully confident that Nepal would prove to be great hosts and that West Indies players are not going to complain about anything during their stay in the Asian country. The video shows the players, accustomed to a certain standard of treatment as professional athletes, walking up to the modest vehicle waiting to transport their gear.

Can guarantee that Nepal will give them the best treatment possible within their means and rightly so and can also guarantee that none of the Carribean boys will see this as a problem or a hassle https://t.co/6OzD9qyxI1 — Sikandar Raza (@SRazaB24) April 25, 2024

It was a momentous occasion for Nepal cricket as West Indies, once powerhouses of world cricket, were visiting Nepal for the first time in the history of the sport. Roston Chase, who is in the mix for the T20 World Cup, will the West Indies A team in their 5-match T20 series against Nepal's senior men's team.

The West Indies A team comprises promising T20 talents like Hayden Walsh, Keemo Paul, and Keacy Carty, alongside seasoned pace bowlers Obed McCoy and Oshane Thomas. The tour holds significant importance as it serves as another phase in preparation leading up to the T20 World Cup, starting June 1 in the USA and the West Indies.

“I am confident this Nepal tour marks a crucial step forward in our preparatory phase for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup. It presents an invaluable opportunity to get our players who are not in the IPL back on the park playing competitive T20 cricket as well as provides the chance for us to expose a few emerging prospects," Desmond Haynes, West Indies' selection committee chief said earlier in the week.
