The former president's Granddaughter Gets Expert Guidance from Tiger Woods Prior to Professional Golf First Appearance

Emerging athlete getting ready for significant competition — The rising star has considerable online audience

The young golfer can count on multiple well-known cheerleaders as she starts her LPGA debut on Thursday.

This teenage golfer, who is connected to a former US president, obtained a special exemption to play at the Annika competition in the Sunshine State.

The former president, an avid golfer, operates several courses worldwide and frequently matches against Kai.

"He's fairly competent. I can't say much but we play competitive games," she revealed.

She mentioned that Trump, who won't be present, advised her: "Just avoid anxiety."

"He basically told me to compete and enjoy myself," she explained.

"In my eyes, he's simply a normal grandpa. He can't make it for the tournament. He's focused on running the country, making him somewhat preoccupied."

While still amateur, the golfer has competed in a mere three competitions in 2024 and has position 461 in AJGA rankings.

But she can get advice from 15-time major champion, romantically involved with her mother.

"He stands as the greatest golfer worldwide," Kai expressed.

"And he's a superior human being. He advised me to play, have fun, and go with the flow."

Kai will face several top competitors in women's golf at the competition, featuring second-ranked Nelly Korda, British golfer Hull, Lexi Thompson and last year's winner champion Vu.

Officials commented that her participation helps introduce the sport to different demographics, particularly reaching the next generation.

Kai boasts a massive following and has started an exclusive fashion and living company.

The competition starts at 17:30 GMT.
