The Story So Far

Why Fans Are Talking About Nastasia Nadaud

A Maiden Win That Strengthened Her Solheim Case
Nadaud’s four-stroke win at the Andalucía Costa del Sol Open de España in late 2025 was her first individual LET title — and became a direct part of the case for her first Solheim Cup selection less than a year later.
A Solheim Cup Pick in Her Rookie LPGA Season
European captain Anna Nordqvist named Nadaud a captain’s pick on August 3, 2026, citing her improvement during qualification, her first LET victory, and a solid LPGA rookie season. She finished her debut 3–1–0 as Europe won 15–13, including a 3&2 Sunday singles victory over Andrea Lee.
An Amateur Win Against the Pros
Before turning pro, Nadaud won the 2022 Göteborg Open wire-to-wire while still an amateur — her first win in a professional tournament, and an early sign of what was coming.
The Rookie Teammate She Knows Best
Nadaud has named fellow LPGA rookie Mimi Rhodes as the teammate she knows best, pointing to a small group of tour rookies who sometimes share accommodations on the road.
Eyes on a Major
Asked about her ultimate goal in a February 2025 interview, Nadaud said she wants to win a major — preferably the Evian Championship.

Where It Started

From Aix-les-Bains to the European Amateur Circuit

Nadaud grew up around Aix-les-Bains in France’s Savoie region and began playing at Golf Club d’Aix-les-Bains 1895 at age six. Rather than pursuing U.S. college golf, she focused on a direct path to professional golf in Europe.

Her 2022 amateur season, per FFGolf records, was the breakout: an 8th-place finish at a LET Access Series event at Terre Blanche, medalist honors in Trophée Esmond qualifying, a win at the German Girls Open, and the wire-to-wire Göteborg Open title — earned against professionals while she was still an amateur, and her first win in a professional tournament. That same year, she was part of the French team that won the European Girls’ Team Championship in Iceland.

Turning Pro

Turning Pro and Climbing the LET

Nadaud turned professional in early 2023 after earning full LET status. Her Order of Merit standing climbed in each of her first three seasons: 54th in 2023, 23rd in 2024, and 3rd in 2025. The LET credits her with the tour’s most birdies and eagles for the 2025 season.

That 2025 campaign culminated in her maiden individual LET title at the Andalucía Costa del Sol Open de España, a four-stroke win late in the year.

The Fast Track

A Fast Path to the LPGA and the Solheim Cup

Immediately after her Costa del Sol win, Nadaud finished T10 at LPGA Q-Series, securing her 2026 LPGA Tour card. Her rookie season followed with four top-25 finishes across 15 starts through mid-August, along with a top-10 strokes-gained-off-the-tee ranking.

Captain Anna Nordqvist selected Nadaud for her first Solheim Cup in 2026. Nadaud finished 3–1–0 as Europe won 15–13, defeating Andrea Lee 3 and 2 in singles. She and fellow rookie Mimi Rhodes became the first rookie pairing in Solheim Cup history to win two matches together, taking one four-ball and one foursomes point.
