As Mom Vanessa Trump’s new boyfriend, golf legend Tiger Woods, was visiting the White House, her teenage daughter, emerging golf star Kai Trump, was busy making money on social media.
And her net worth (No. 1 among U.S. female high school athletes) is staggering.
The high school golfer’s newest sponsorship deal — launched Saturday, May 10 — adds some impressive dollars to her already sky-high net worth. Not only does Kai’s famous last name (her grandfather is President Donald Trump; Dad is Vanessa’s ex-husband, Donald Trump Jr.) and enviable golf skills make her an enticing spokeswoman, but she lives in one of the few states that even allow high school athletes to earn NIL money in the first place.
“Unboxed the future of fitness,” the 17-year-old (she turns 18 May 12) captioned her new promo on Instagram, where the star has 1.7 million followers (she has an additional 3 million on TikTok). “WHOOP 5.0 is on my wrist and keeping me locked in—from the grind to the recovery. Let’s go!”
Subscriptions for the new fitness tracker with up to 14 days of battery life run up to $359. “Sleeker, lasts over 14 days, and gives you legit medical-grade insights,” Kai added on X (formerly Twitter), where she boasts more than 908k followers. “I couldn’t ask for a better upgrade to my golf game!”
Not only do very few female high school athletes get signed for NIL deals, but only 20 states even allow high schoolers to do so.
Florida, where Kai attends the elite Benjamin High School, is one of those 20 states.
The new @whoop is INSANE. Sleeker, lasts over 14 days, and gives you legit medical-grade insights. I couldn’t ask for a better upgrade to my golf game! I’ve literally been wearing it nonstop and I’m blown away. https://t.co/B6hkj80TvX
According to On3, before the brand-new WHOOP deal, Kai was worth $1.2 million on her own — which makes her the highest recorded female earner in the high school sports world, and one of the top overall. Her sponsorship deals include TaylorMade Golf and Leaf Trading Cards.
Nashville football star Jared Curtis currently sits at No. 1 for all high school NIL earners, with a $2 million valuation — which Kai inched closer to with this new WHOOP deal. Other top-earning female high school athletes include tennis star Anna Frey, who has a current valuation of $681k, and basketball star Aaliyah Chavez, $755k. All numbers are according to On3.
Kai’s mother, Vanessa, is worth $75 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth. Mom and golf super-star Woods have recently come out as a couple and on Thursday, May 8 Woods was seen at the White House meeting with Vanessa’s former father-in-law, according to a May 9 report in People.
Woods’ son Charlie Woods, 16, also plays golf and attends the same school as Kai. He has no recorded NIL deals — yet.
Kai has committed to start at University of Miami in 2026.
