Kid made his first appearance in the Game Boy Color ''[[Mario Golf (Game Boy Color)|Mario Golf]]'' as one of the four characters players could choose from the beginning. In this game, his appearance is that of a young boy with kinky brown hair, prominent lips, and blue eyes. He wears a white-collared black polo shirt, blue shorts, and a white glove on his left hand. His socks are white and his shoes are copper orange with white stripes. Over his hair, he wears a red baseball cap flipped backwards. His bio on the official Japanese ''Mario Golf'' website states he began playing golf since the age of three and had already become a golfing prodigy by age ten.<ref name= | Kid made his first appearance in the Game Boy Color ''[[Mario Golf (Game Boy Color)|Mario Golf]]'' as one of the four characters players could choose from the beginning.

Kid returns in ''[[Mario Golf: Advance Tour]]'', with an older and updated appearance. It is established that Kid had become the Grand Champion in the last game. However, he was injured badly due to excessive training caused by strain of the muscles and joints to the point where he could not even grasp a golf club. It was said he could no longer golf and lost his title to the former champion, [[Gene]]. After a five year recovery, Kid became an avid golf trainer to [[Neil]], [[Ella]], [[Buzz (character)|Buzz]] and [[Helen]], until [[Bud (Mario Golf)|Bud]] influenced him to pick up the club again when he signed them up in Marion. He ascended the ranks quickly and took back the championship. | Kid returns in ''[[Mario Golf: Advance Tour]]'', with an older and updated appearance.

Kid lead the title over the [[Links Course|Links Tourney]]. He has also formed a doubles team with Gene to advance up the doubles (more likely for the benefit of Gene gaining another title). He aims to always keep his composure, and tries to be fair to his friends and foes alike. He encourages his students to keep going strong, no matter what and is a very respected golfer among peers. | Kid lead the title over the [[Links Course|Links Tourney]].

<blockquote>I started playing golf at three years old. I did not know what I was doing at the beginning, but now I am proud of this skill! I have become famous recently and my TV appearances have also increased. All my pictures are taken by my mother. My dream is to become a professional golfer, to become one of the best! It's amazing! Boys, be ambitious. It could happen!</blockquote> | |||

== | ==Trivia== | ||
*It was implied on the Japanese website of ''Mario Golf'' that he gives thanks to his mother for encouragement. | |||
*His character seems to be somewhat based on the childhood of real life golfer Eldrick "Tiger" Woods. This is most visible in his Nintendo 64 appearance, though later games masked this by lightening his skin tone. | |||
*The voice lines for Kid performed by {{wp|Penn Badgley}} were later reused for [[Alex]] (in both [[Game Boy Color]] ''[[Mario Tennis (Game Boy Color)|Mario Tennis]]'' and [[Nintendo 64]] ''[[Mario Tennis (Nintendo 64)|Mario Tennis]]''), and [[Chris]] in ''[[Mario Tennis: Power Tour]]''. | |||
