Every golfer who makes a debut on any of the professional tours wishes to get some words of wisdom from the game’s legends. For many, it remains just a dream, as they don’t have access to elite golfers or their time. But things can be different when you are Kai Trump. Before stepping onto the LPGA stage, Kai Trump received advice from someone who knows the spotlight better than anyone, Tiger Woods. Trump has spent time around Tiger Woods and shares a personal connection through her mother, Vanessa Trump. The two are reportedly in a relationship, which adds more depth to Tiger’s influence and mentorship role.

With a family tie to Tiger Woods, it was evident that the debutant would have asked the 82x PGA Tour winner for advice. Speaking ahead of the event, she shared the advice she received from Woods. “Yeah, I mean, he is the best golfer in the entire world. I would say that. And even better person. He told me to go out there and have fun and just go with the flow. Whatever happens, happens,” Kai Trump told the media at the press conference before The ANNIKA 2025.

Kai Trump received a sponsor invite from the Pelican Golf Club to play in The ANNIKA 2025. She will make her debut at the event scheduled from November 13-16, 2025. It is a high-profile tournament, with stars like Nelly Korda, Charley Hull, Lexi Thompson, Rose Zhang, and many others. It is normal for a debutant to get nervous playing her first LPGA event. But when it is a star-studded tournament like The ANNIKA, the nervousness can be even higher. To top it all, the event also features Caitlin Clark playing at the Pro-Am.
Tiger Woods’ advice revolves around this nervousness. He himself has played many events against elite golfers before his time, such as Greg Norman and Tom Watson. Therefore, he has advised Trump to focus on the fun part of the game. And it’s not just Woods who advised her to do so. Her grandfather, Donald Trump, is also a golf lover and has advised the same. The LPGA has also tightened security at The ANNIKA 2025 for POUTS’s granddaughter.
When the media asked Kai Trump about who she works on her game with and Donald Trump’s advice for her debut event, she said, “Well, I kind of — I know my game pretty well so I have a few people watch things over. I don’t really work with anyone right now at the moment. And my grandpa pretty much told me go out there and have fun. Just don’t get nervous. Try my best not to.”

This advice comes from Donald Trump’s experiences. Although Donald Trump has not played professional golf, he is very well aware of the pressure of the game and plays it often. He owns and operates a large portfolio of prestigious golf courses around the world through the Trump Organization. Donald Trump has also authored a book titled “The Best Golf Advice I Ever Received.” This indicates his engagement with the game beyond playing, as he has gathered and shared golf wisdom from top players and experts.
Kai Trump was also seen with Tiger Woods at the 2025 Genesis Invitational.

Kai Trump joined Tiger Woods at the 2025 Genesis Invitational
Tiger Woods had just lost his mother a few days before the 2025 Genesis Invitational. Therefore, he withdrew from the event. Although not playing, he arrived on the course at the 2025 Genesis Invitational. And he was not alone. Kai Trump was accompanying the 15x major winner. The two were there for a special TaylorMade promotion. As a rising golf talent and newly signed athlete with TaylorMade, Kai participated in pro-am events and marketing activities. Tiger Woods, on the other hand, is a longtime TaylorMade ambassador. This event showcased the mentorship and support that Woods offered Trump as she stepped into higher-level competitive golf.
Tiger Woods was wearing his iconic Sunday red shirt. The collaboration between the two highlighted her rapid rise in the sport and her influence as a social media star. At the Genesis Invitational, Kai played in the Pro-Am on Wednesday alongside Rory McIlroy. She performed well despite challenging weather conditions. Her pin-seeking shots and composure under pressure impressed observers.

Kai Trump’s performance even drew comparisons with Charlie Woods, Tiger’s son. Both of them attend the same school in Palm Beach, Florida, and have teed it up in some of the same junior events. Her grandfather, former President Donald Trump, praised her game, saying she has “the best natural swing I’ve ever seen.”
With Tiger Woods’ endorsement, Kai Trump’s skill set, and growing fan base, she is expected to make a significant impact at the University of Miami and in her broader golf career.
