As reported by On3, her name, image, and likeness (NIL) valuation currently stands at $1.2 million. This figure places her just behind prominent athletes like LSU gymnast Livvy Dunne, UConn basketball star Paige Bueckers, and LSU basketball player Flau’jae Johnson, all of whom are among the top-earning female athletes.
Kai’s valuation positions her at the top for high school women’s golf and in the 81st place in the overall NIL top 100.
NIL is known as the “leading index in the industry for determining the projected annual value for high school and college athletes.” This news follows the recent finalization of Kai’s NIL deal with Leaf Trading Cards, based in Dallas, which sells autograph cards for $20 per pack.
“Leaf Trading Cards is excited to announce one of Kai Trump’s first-ever NIL deals, confirming her spot within our impressive range of products and exclusive online releases,” stated CJ Breen, director of marketing for Leaf, in comments to Sports Illustrated. “This partnership signifies our belief in Kai’s promising future as she begins her golf career at the University of Miami Hurricanes. We are eager to introduce her remarkable talent to the trading card community and can’t wait for fans to start collecting her cards.”
Upon her commitment to the University of Miami, Kai expressed profound gratitude, especially thanking her family: “my Grandpa for giving me access to great courses and tremendous support.”
Kai’s considerable social media influence significantly affects her valuation. She boasts over 1.5 million followers on Instagram, 920,000 on X, and 2.9 million on TikTok.
Additionally, she runs a YouTube channel dedicated to golf, offering viewers an inside look at her journey.
Kai shared her and her grandfather’s mutual enthusiasm for golf at the Republican National Convention (RNC) last July, recounting: “He calls me during the school day to check on my golf game and shares updates about his.” She added, “But I have to remind him that I’m in school, and I’ll call him back later.”
