Trump's Family Member Receives Expert Guidance from Tiger Woods Before Professional Golf First Appearance
The rising star maintains impressive social media audience
The young golfer will have multiple prominent cheerleaders when she makes her first LPGA appearance this Thursday.
The 18-year-old athlete, who happens to be related to Donald Trump, obtained a special exemption to participate at the Annika competition in the Sunshine State.
Her grandfather, a passionate golfer, operates numerous international courses and frequently competes against Kai.
"He's fairly competent. I can't say much but we have competitive games," she revealed.
She mentioned that Trump, who cannot attend, counseled her: "Just avoid anxiety."
"My grandpa practically advised me to compete and have fun," she explained.
"From my perspective, he's just an ordinary family member. He won't be there this weekend. He's focused on world affairs, so he's quite busy."
While still amateur, Kai has participated in only three events recently and has position 461 in AJGA standings.
But she can get advice from 15-time major champion, in a relationship with Kai's mother.
"He is the greatest golfer in the world," Kai expressed.
"Additionally, he's a superior person. He suggested me to play, enjoy myself, following whatever happens."
She'll challenge some of top competitors in the sport at this tournament, including world number two the champion, England's golfer Hull, Lexi Thompson and 2023 champion Lilia Vu.
The LPGA stated that Kai's presence exposes golf to wider groups, particularly among youth audiences.
Kai boasts a massive following and recently launched an exclusive clothing and lifestyle label.
Her first tee time at 5:30 PM GMT.
