It has been revealed that the golf enthusiast who went viral on social media on Sunday night is a cheerleader for Texas Tech from Colorado. Coed Aaliyah Kikumoto, 19, was caught on camera by at least one TikTok user as she watched the dramatic US Masters final between Jon Rahm and Brooks Koepka from the 16th tee box.
The camera stayed on Kikumoto’s face long enough for her to become famous as she waited with everyone else for Patrick Cantlay to make his shot so Rahm and Koepka could continue their duel. Things got started when the TikTok user DoubleBogeys posted a little clip of Kikumoto with the description, “Somehow I feel in love with someone I only saw for 15 seconds.”

The teenager is seen towards the beginning of the video appearing nervous before smiling as Cantlay proceeds to line up his drive. The excerpt has received over 250,000 likes and had over 3.4 million views as of this writing.
One commenter made reference to Ohio State football player Catherine Gurd, who gained notoriety earlier this year for seeming uncomfortable at the College Football Playoff semifinal between Georgia and Ohio State, saying, “Legit said, “she’s going be the new ohio state girl” as I was watching live.”
Another person said, “Bro I thought I was the only one.”
Kikumoto is a native of Colorado; she attended Rock Canyon High School in the suburbs of Denver where she grew up. One of six siblings, she.
The dancer is described as a 2022–2023 member of Texas Tech’s Pom team. Together with her father Charles, the Texas college student went to Augusta for the competition.
She seems to be accepting her new label as a “Masters girl.” The Double Bogey’s narrative was answered by Kikumoto with the words “Thts me.”
Thanks Ho. 16 #themastersgirl #themasters, Kikumoto commented in a different Instagram picture.
AJ Loveland, the mother of Kikumoto, was one of the people who commented on the new viral celebrity in America. She said beneath one of her daughter’s posts, “Yay!! Sustaining Texas Tech! TTU Poms, go! I’m really happy for my husband @CharlesKikumoto and Aaliyah from TTU Poms.
Given that Kikumoto’s mother used to dance for the NBA’s Denver Nuggets Dancers, it is obvious that cheering runs in her family. Loveland now works as a judge for dancing competitions and a children’s book author.
Charles, her father, is an executive with the Denver office of insurance brokerage Moreton & Company and is a graduate of Brigham Young University. He formerly served on the finance committee for his state’s Republican Party, the Utah Republican Party.
Yes, I’m wearing my TTU pom squad cap and celebrating Easter at the Masters. Aaliyah, our daughter, wears the green masters cap and attends Tech. He wore a Texas Tech cap to support his daughter’s school and tweeted, “Wreck em!”
It is unknown if Kikumoto will compete in the May PGA Championship, the next premier competition.

A brief video of the lacrosse player from Xavier University that TikTok developer Hayden Sheppard posted with the message, “Somebody find me this girl from Ohio State… for the love of god,” went viral.
She can be seen watching the game closely from the crowd as the camera pans to her, holding her hands in a prayer position on her lips.
The number of views for Sheppard’s video exceeded 3.4 million.
One individual said, “Those eyes, that will make a man move to OHIO right there.”
Another TikTok member said, “By far the most beautiful freaking eyes.”
The internet has been attempting to find her since the TikTok became viral, and now users have their answer.
Two days after the Peach Bowl, Gurd tweeted a video with the message, “POV your 3 seconds on TV somehow makes you go viral.”
The kid afterwards shared a humorous TikTok video of herself in front of a news headline with the caption, “When you start 2023 with a new name.”
