One of the president’s relatives plans to tee off in a Murrells Inlet golf tournament this weekend.

Kai Trump, President Trump’s granddaughter, plans to participate in the Dustin Johnson World Junior that starts Feb. 28, 2025, and runs through March 2, 2025.

A spokesperson for the tournament confirmed that Trump is in the field.

Kai Trump —the daughter of the president’s eldest son Donald Trump Jr. — is known for posting about her affinity for golf on social media platforms like YouTube and Instagram where she has amassed millions of followers.

Trump isn’t the only participant in the tournament from a famous family. Tiger Woods’ son Charlie is also participating in the tournament at TPC Myrtle Beach.

The spokesperson for the tournament added that golfers will only be made available for interviews if they are in the lead or close to it once off the course.
