Lydia Ko recently shared her experience of having her dog, Kai, at the CME Group Tour Championship. The LPGA Tour's final event of the 2024 season is being held at Tiburon Golf Club in Naples, Florida.Ko began the tournament impressively, carding a 5-under 67. She notched six birdies against one bogey, placing her tied for fifth after the opening round. In the subsequent press conference, she was queried about her recently adopted dog, Kai, who made an appearance at her press conference this week.Ko was asked about her experience of having Kai with her over the weekend. She shared that having her dog around has been incredibly enjoyable. The 27-year-old mentioned that Kai keeps her on her toes, as she needs to be mindful when opening doors to avoid him dashing out and barking at people near the pool area."He's great. He keeps me more focused while I am practicing and then while I'm off I'm able to switch off and just enjoy time with him and kind of also figure out what life is outside of just golf course, hotel," she said."It's been fun. He's a blast, but he's definitely a handful. Somebody said this is like an experience to having kids and I was like, well, I'm not sure if I can handle kids after just having a dog. Yeah, he's great and I'm excited to go see him afterwards," she added.Ko once shared pictures of Kai on her Instagram handle.
