Back on the green: Caitlyn Jenner enjoyed a game of golf with her sons Brandon and Brody on Sunday; she says her new breasts make her swing better

It comes after the trans I Am Cait star told the Mail On Sunday that her new breasts make her game better.

‘When people ask me about my new life as a woman, they always ask the same question about my golf game: “Are your breasts going to get in the way?” ’ she told the Daily Mail's sister publication.

‘The answer is no, my game is still really good. And to be honest, the breasts are really good for putting.

'I used to put a sock under my arm to help keep my arms straight, but now I don’t have to do that any more because I can hold my arms against my breasts, so it’s perfect.’

Big aim: Caitlyn plans to use the golfing competition to make a stand for women golfers who feel they need to be treated more equally to men in the sport

Caitlyn plans to use the golfing competition to make a stand for women golfers who feel they need to be treated more equally to men in the sport.

A source at the country club told the New York Daily News newspaper's Confidenti@l column: 'She has a strong handicap and is obviously a natural born competitor.

'This event is a perfect way to make her announcement to the world that she is on the golf course as a woman and wants to be treated that way.'

Sporty star: Caitlyn is a keen golfer who has played the sport for more than 15 years

Caitlyn - a keen golfer who has played the sport for more than 15 years - could be paired up with U.S. soccer star Abby Wambach at the event, however, it's yet to be confirmed.

Meanwhile, Caitlyn - who was once married to Kris Jenner - attended the re-opening of the Sherwood Country Club earlier this month, where she was told she wouldn't be able to perform in the men's games and she was fine with it.

The 66-year-old said: 'I think it's cute that they said I couldn't play because it's an all-men's tournament.'
