Kid

Kid (aka "Kiddo" in Mario Golf GBC) is a young golfer from Mario Golf (GBC version) and Mario Golf: Advance Tour. He had apparently started playing golf ever since he was three and had already become a golfing prodigy at age 10.

In Mario Golf, he was one of four characters that you could choose from at the beginning of the game and train however you like. He could then be uploaded to the N64 version for more training.

In Mario Golf: Advance Tour, it is established that Kid had become the Grand Champion in the last game. However, due to an injury, he could no longer golf and lost his title to the former champion, Gene. After recovery, Kid became an avid golf trainer to Neil, Ella, Buzz and Helen, until the Club Manager 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 now leads the title over the Links tourney. He also ended up forming a doubles team with Gene to advance up the doubles (more likely for the benefit of Gene gaining another title).

Kid never seems to lose his cool, and always tries to be fair to his friends and his foes. He encourages his students to keep going strong, no matter what. He is a very respected golfer and is considered to be just as good, maybe even better, than Mario.
