Trump's Family Member Seeks Expert Advice from Tiger Woods Ahead of Professional Golf Debut
This young athlete boasts considerable social media following
The young golfer will have multiple well-known backers when she makes her LPGA debut this Thursday.
This teenage golfer, who happens to be related to Donald Trump, was granted a special exemption to play at the Annika tournament in the Sunshine State.
Her grandfather, a passionate golfer, possesses numerous golf courses and frequently competes against his granddaughter.
"He's pretty good. I can't say much but we have some close matches," she revealed.
Kai explained that Trump, who cannot attend, advised her: "Just avoid anxiety."
"My grandpa practically suggested to go out there and have fun," she continued.
"From my perspective, he's just a normal grandpa. He's not attending this weekend. He's occupied with world affairs, so he's rather occupied."
While still amateur, Kai has competed in only three events in 2024 and has the 461st position in the American Junior Golf Association standings.
But she's able to seek guidance from Tiger Woods, in a relationship with her mother.
"He is the greatest golfer in the world," Kai expressed.
"Furthermore, he's a more impressive human being. He told me to compete, relax, and go with whatever happens."
The golfer will compete against some of the biggest names in women's golf at the Annika, including world number two Nelly Korda, British golfer Hull, professional Thompson and last year's winner champion Vu.
Officials stated that involving Kai exposes golf to wider groups, especially among younger fans.
The social media influencer maintains millions of followers and recently launched her own fashion and living brand.
Her first tee time at late afternoon GMT.
