There's a lot going on in Nelly Korda's world right now.

She's currently the No.1 female golfer in the world, and she has an army of supportive fans. The 25-year-old also just attended the Met Gala, making her the first LPGA player to walk fashion's biggest red carpet.

Here's her dreamy dress, posted by designer brand Oscar de la Renta:

Oh! And then there's the fact that Nelly just won her fifth tournament in a row, which is incredibly hard to do in golf. With an upcoming appearance in the Olympics this summer, Nelly is on a serious roll.

But while she's completely crushing things on a professional level, she also has plenty of support off the course. One of her biggest fans is her boyfriend, Andreas Athanasiou, who usually can be seen on the sidelines as she competes.

But who is Andreas Athanasiou and how long have they been together? Here's what you need to know.

Yes, Nelly Korda is in a relationship. She's dating Andreas Athanasiou, and the two go way back. The couple originally launched their relationship on Instagram with a post about Thanksgiving, but it's since been removed.

Andreas hasn't shown up on Nelly's Instagrams lately but, to be fair, her content is 99% golf-related. Andreas also is on Instagram, but his account is private.

That Thanksgiving photo dropped in 2019, but the two didn't share any details about how they met. While Nelly and Andreas regularly show up at each other's tournaments and games, they're pretty private in public about their relationship.

Speaking of games...Andreas is a professional athlete, too. He currently plays for the Chicago Blackhawks, although he has experience with the Edmonton Oilers and Detroit Red Wings, where played for five seasons (between 2015 and 2020).

Andreas is 6 feet, 2 inches and weighs 190 pounds, according to his bio. He's also 29 -- four years older than Nelly -- and is from Ontario, Canada.

Andreas has been a pro hockey player for ages: He was drafted by Detroit in the fourth round as the 110 overall pick in 2012. He signed a two-year contract with the Blackhawks in 2023, which means he should play for the team for at least one more year.

While Nelly and Andreas haven't said much about their relationship in public, they still show up for each other. Andreas was there when Nelly won her fifth LPGA Tour event at in 2021 and even carried her clubs at one point.

Nelly also wore a Blackhawks' jersey on a course in 2022 after Andreas signed to the team.
