Rory McIlroy spotted golfing with Kai Trump at the Genesis Invitational Pro-Am 2025

Rory McIlroy and US President Donald Trump's granddaughter Kai Trump were spotted together at the Genesis Invitational Pro-Am recently. The latter is a social media personality and budding golfer.

A picture of McIlroy and Kai Trump from their game on Wednesday made rounds on social media. The two were dressed to beat the rainy day at Torrey Pines in dark windbreakers. McIlroy sported a white beanie while Trump opted for a white cap to complete their gear.

Daily Mail reporter Jon Michael Raasch shared a picture of the duo walking on the course on his X account.

Rory McIlroy came to the Genesis Invitational with a fresh win on his belt. He won his first PGA Tour event of the year at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am two weeks back. The Northern Irish star had skipped the WM Phoenix Open last week.

He is currently placed T14 in the ongoing Round 1 of the Genesis Invitational (at the time of writing). Seamus Power, Patrick Rodgers and Scottie Scheffler are leading the standings at the moment.
