Vanessa Trump and her daughter, Kai, owned the room at Tiger Woods’ 50th birthday bash.
The former daughter-in-law of Donald Trump and her daughter turned heads the minute they stepped into the celeb-packed room, celebrating Woods at the luxury Florida resort The Breakers on Wednesday night.
Although the golf legend turned 50 on December 30, Woods waited to throw an ultra-exclusive celebration worthy of his legacy – one packed with over 300 guests, an acoustic performance by Bon Jovi, and dinner experience inspired by Augusta – to help benefit his TGR foundation.
Guests who made the invite list were instructed to wear a “touch of red,” a powerful nod to Tiger’s infamous “Sunday Red” tradition of wearing red polos during the final round of tournaments.
Vanessa set the tone in a sleek, low-cut black dress paired with statement red heels. Meanwhile, Kai, an aspiring golfer, understood the assignment perfectly, and was dressed to impress in a red, silk mermaid-style gown paired with a cast on her left arm – the result of a recent wrist surgery.
Kai shared two photos from the fete on Instagram Wednesday night, showing off her and her mom’s glam look.

The night was so meticulously planned that it even had a name, “RED: Celebrating Legacy presented by EY US,” with Ernst and Young stepping up as a presenting sponsor. The event also marked a major milestone, the TGR Foundation’s 30th year of fundraising.
It’s no surprise that Vanessa and her daughter were there to support Tiger. Both share a close bond with the golf legend, ever since Tiger announced in March 2025 that he was dating Vanessa.
At the time, the 82-time PGA Tour winner included two loved-photos with Vanessa in his Instagram announcement, with one showing Donald Trump Jr.’s former wife laying with her head on his shoulder on an outdoor swing.
“Love is in the air and life is better with you by my side! We look forward to our journey through life together. At this time we would appreciate privacy for all those close to our hearts,” Tiger captioned the post.
