Kai Trump has admitted she ‘loves’ Tiger Woods and described the golf icon as ‘a great guy’ in heartfelt comments about her relationship with her mom’s boyfriend.
As first revealed by the Daily Mail in March 2025, Woods is dating Kai’s mother, Vanessa Trump.
Recent reports even claimed they have discussed getting married following a turbulent year that saw the golf legend arrested for DUI and Vanessa reveal she had breast cancer.
During an interview with Golfweek, Kai attributed her flourishing golf career to Vanessa after she got her into the sport when she was just two-years-old.
But then Kai admitted having arguably the greatest golfer of all time on her side as well is no bad thing.
‘If it wasn’t for her, I probably wouldn’t be about playing golf right now,’ she said about Vanessa. Moving onto Tiger, Kai added: ‘He’s the best. I love him so much, and he’s a great guy, and he helps me whenever I want.’

It has been a rocky start to life as a collegiate golfer for Kai after she underwent season-ending wrist surgery last month.
Trump announced in a candid YouTube vlog in October that she suffered a painful wrist injury during her very first tournament for the University of Miami, the Golfweek Fall Challenge.
The 19-year-old revealed the injury occurred early in the competition when she tried to hit a shot near a path, unknowingly striking hard concrete hidden just beneath the surface. She said it felt ‘like a shock on my arm.’
Taking to Instagram, President Donald Trump’s granddaughter posted a picture of her in a hospital bed with her left wrist in a huge cast and sling.
Kai revealed to Golfweek that there is no timeline for her return to action. ‘I had two surgeries in, like, nine months,’ she added. ‘I want to take my time.’
‘I wish I was playing,’ she added. ‘I wish I was traveling on my team, playing college golf right now. But everything happens for a reason, and right now, it’s just not my time.
‘I’m gonna get healthy so that I can definitely play for the rest of my life and not have these injuries that I’ve had. Just got to get it right this time around, and go out there next year and kill it.’
