This teenage golfer, who is connected to a former US president, was granted a special exemption to participate at the Annika tournament in Florida. The former president, a passionate golfer, possesses multiple international courses and regularly competes against Kai. "He's quite skilled. I shouldn't elaborate but we have tight competitions," she revealed. The golfer shared that her grandfather, who won't be present, advised her: "Simply stay calm." "My grandpa basically advised me to compete and enjoy myself," she added. "From my perspective, he's just a regular grandfather. He's not attending for the tournament. He's focused on presidential duties, making him rather occupied." As an amateur, the golfer has competed in just three tournaments in 2024 and has ranking 461 in AJGA listings. Yet she can receive tips from Tiger Woods, romantically involved with her mother. "He is the greatest golfer in the world," the young golfer said. "And he's an even better human being. He advised me to play, enjoy myself, and go with whatever happens." Kai will face some of top competitors in women's golf at the Annika, featuring second-ranked Nelly Korda, British Charley Hull, professional Thompson and 2023 champion Lilia Vu. Tournament organizers stated that her participation brings the sport to wider groups, particularly with younger fans. The social media influencer boasts millions of followers and has started her own clothing and lifestyle company. Her first tee time at 5:30 PM GMT.
