Aaliyah Kikumoto, who briefly appeared behind Jon Rahm and Brooks Koepka at the 2023 Masters, is certainly still basking in the glow of her newfound fame.
The Texas Tech star went viral in April after her enthusiastic reaction to the ongoing Masters in Augusta was caught on camera. She had no clue she would end up on camera, but her sultry smile captured the hearts of millions of fans watching at home.
Her smile subsequently made the rounds on every social media site and it prompted fans to dub her the “Master’s Girl.”
This week, ‘The Masters Girl’ is going viral for the fiery swimsuit photos she posted on Instagram. She could be seen in a red two-piece smiling and posing while seemingly on a boat. She could be seen posing by herself and with another friend who was wearing the same color bikini.
Since her fame skyrocketed, Kikumoto’s Instagram following has grown from 2,000 to over 45,000. Not only has Kikumoto’s online fame rocketed, but so has her career outside of cheerleading.
She called her fame “an interesting ride and one that I wasn’t expecting to happen in this sort of fashion.

“It’s something I wanted at some point to grow my brand and be a positive influence for good.
“While all this is unfolding I’m still trying to do homework, study for exams, Pom commitments, and other things.
“My friends have embraced it, and when this happened it showed me that I have great friends, teammates, and coaches.”
Already an ambassador for the Celcius energy drink brand, Kikumoto reportedly has new ventures in the works, but she has yet to reveal them.
The final major tournament of the golf season is set for later this month at The Open Championship.
We can only hope to see her there.
