Vanessa Trump made a rare public appearance on Sunday over a month on from boyfriend Tiger Woods’s latest bombshell DUI arrest.
Vanessa, 48, joined her former father-in-law, President Donald Trump, for the final round of the PGA Tour’s Cadillac Championship on Sunday afternoon.
The Tour’s signature event, which boasts a $20million prize purse, was staged at the president’s Trump National Doral, marking the first time the PGA Tour has returned to the Miami course since 2016.
And the First Family marked the occasion with Vanessa’s eldest daughter from her marriage to Donald Trump Jr., Kai, joining her at the tournament.
The 18-year-old is an avid golfer herself and will be heading to the University of Miami in the fall to play for the college’s golf team.
Trump’s son Eric was also in attendance, sitting alongside his presidential father in the hospitality gallery by the 18th green.

The President’s attendance came after a man was taken into custody by Secret Service agents at a security checkpoint on the course.
Footage, posted on social media on Saturday, showed the man being handcuffed and detained by officers at Trump National Doral Golf Club in Miami.
He was arrested after allegedly defying orders and ‘getting physical’ with a Secret Service agent, the New York Post reported.
It is claimed the man was later taken to a correctional center in Miami and charged with disorderly conduct and resisting without violence.
Vanessa has attended a number of golfing events over the past year amid her relationship with Woods.
The couple, who began dating around Thanksgiving 2024, attended the Genesis Invitational at Riviera Country Club in greater Los Angeles, California in February, while Vanessa also supported the 15-time major winner at a number of TGL matches this year.
However, despite the golfing setting, Vanessa was not joined by her golf legend beau on Sunday.
Woods is believed to be continuing his recovery after seeking professional help in the wake of his car crash and DUI arrest in March.

Woods, 50, was detained on March 27 after flipping his SUV in Jupiter Island, Florida
The embattled golfer, 50, flipped his SUV while trying to overtake a truck and trailer at high speed in the billionaire enclave of Jupiter Island on March 27.
Woods has been charged with driving under the influence, property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test after police found two pills in his pocket at the scene. He pleaded not guilty and is slated to appear in court on Tuesday.
Woods was believed to have traveled to Zurich, Switzerland seeking professional help at an ultra-exclusive rehab facility following the arrest. Furthermore, insiders revealed to the Daily Mail that Woods is showing encouraging signs after undergoing ‘intense treatment’ in rehab.
‘He’s got a pain management doctor who is helping him deal with his body pain without addictive opioids,’ the source told the Daily Mail last week. ‘He calls or Zooms a small number of people: Vanessa, his kids, Mark Steinberg.
‘He’s responding well to treatment, and Vanessa is very happy with what she’s hearing.’
Woods has been in a relationship for around 18 months with Vanessa, who divorced Trump Jr. in 2018.
There had been speculation that their relationship could be on the rocks after his arrest, but Vanessa rubbished that talk by throwing her support behind Woods on Instagram.
A week after his arrest, she shared a loved-up photo of them together on Instagram and wrote: ‘Love you’.

The latest saga is the fourth time that Woods has been in trouble after being behind the wheel of a car.
He was arrested for another DUI in 2017 after police found him slumped in his car in Florida with five drugs in his system, including two painkillers.
Woods was later involved in a similar crash in 2021 in California, which shattered his right leg after he was trapped under the vehicle. He needed multiple surgeries in order to recover from his injuries.
He also crashed into a fire hydrant in November 2009 as he tried to flee his Florida home after wife Elin Nordegren discovered he had been having an affair. It sparked an unraveling of his reputation that he has never truly recovered from.
Although he passed a breathalyzer test at the scene of the crash, officers said he was traveling at ‘high speeds’ and ‘showed signs of impairment’ when he rolled his SUV last month, including ‘bloodshot and glassy’ eyes with ‘extremely dilated pupils.’
A deputy found two white pills on Woods, which have since been identified as the opioid hydrocodone. He later refused to take a urine test resulting in his arrest and has since pleaded not guilty to a DUI charge.
