Kai Trump's Status for The Annika Golf Tournament Confirmed After Surgery on Wrist Injury

Miami golfer Kai Trump, the granddaughter of U.S. President Donald Trump, will officially miss her second shot at LPGA action after undergoing wrist surgery.

Hurricanes golfer Scarlett Schremmer told to Golfweek's Beth Ann Nichols she will be playing this week while Trump will sit out The Annika at Pelican Golf Club.

Miami had announced Oct. 15 Schremmer had received a sponsor invitation to The Annika. Trump had made her LPGA debut on sponsor invitation at the event last November.

Schremmer is expecting Trump to be present at the Florida golf course for Thursday's opening round, Nichols reported.

Trump announced in an Oct. 14 social media post she had undergone surgery on a wrist injury suffered during her first tournament of the collegiate season, the Golfweek Fall Classic at Pawleys Island in South Carolina.

She previously said she "felt like she tore" something in her wrist during the September tournament.

This marked the second wrist surgery Trump has undergone within the past year. She previously announced the completion of a procedure on her left wrist last January.

In Trump's first appearance at The Annika, she went 18-over through two rounds to finish last in the 108-player field and miss the cut.

She has appeared in two collegiate tournaments prior to undergoing surgery, starting when she finished 102nd out of 120 competitors at Pawleys Island.

Trump most recently placed 13th in a 14-player field in October at the Golfweek Put Me In Coach Invitational in Muncie, Indiana.
