"I was definitely more nervous than I expected, but I thought I hit a lot of great shots out there,"
"I hit a lot of good shots just to the wrong spots."
"It was pretty cool because I know I hit it far, but kind of playing with the best players in the world and being literally right there or even outdriving on some of the holes, it felt pretty good,"
"Felt like my game is in a good spot, and especially only being a senior in high school."
Kai Trump opened her LPGA Tour debut at The Annika with a 13-over 83 at Pelican Golf Club. The high school senior bogeyed the first four holes and completed a birdie-less round with nine bogeys and two double bogeys in breezy afternoon conditions. Trump is a University of Miami recruit playing on a sponsor exemption. She reported feeling more nervous than expected while still hitting many strong shots that ended up in poor positions. Trump noted confidence from outdriving some competitors and assessed her game as being in a good spot. Haeran Ryu led at 6-under 64.
