Trump's Family Member Receives Professional Guidance from Golf Legend Woods Prior to LPGA First Appearance
The rising star boasts impressive online audience
Kai Trump can count on multiple prominent cheerleaders as she makes her first LPGA appearance this Thursday.
The 18-year-old athlete, who happens to be connected to Donald Trump, was granted a tournament invitation to play at the Annika tournament in the Sunshine State.
The former president, an avid golfer, possesses numerous golf courses and often competes against his granddaughter.
"He's quite skilled. I can't say much but we have competitive games," she stated.
She mentioned that Trump, who won't be present, told her: "Just don't get nervous."
"He basically suggested to play and enjoy myself," she continued.
"In my eyes, he's just a normal grandpa. He's not attending for the tournament. He's occupied with world affairs, making him rather occupied."
As an amateur, Kai has played in a mere three competitions this year and maintains the 461st position in the American Junior Golf Association listings.
However she's able to receive tips from Tiger Woods, in a relationship with Kai's mother.
"He represents the best player in the world," Kai expressed.
"Additionally, he's a superior person. He told me to compete, relax, adapting to whatever happens."
The golfer will compete against several the biggest names in the sport at the competition, such as second-ranked the champion, British Charley Hull, professional Thompson and 2023 champion champion Vu.
The LPGA stated that Kai's presence helps introduce golf to new audiences, especially with youth audiences.
The social media influencer maintains substantial online presence and has started a personal clothing and lifestyle label.
Her first tee time at 5:30 PM GMT.
