Will Ferrell is taking a brief breather from his new Netflix golf comedy ... 'cause a minor injury has put him on the sidelines ... TMZ has learned.

Production sources tell TMZ ... the actor recently suffered an injury off set, and while it wasn't serious, it was enough to keep him from filming scenes scheduled this week at the Bicycle Casino just outside Los Angeles.

It's unclear exactly how or where Will got hurt, but we're told the issue made it impossible for him to shoot the planned material safely or comfortably this week. Producers have temporarily rearranged the schedule while he recovers.

Kai Trump might be feeling the nerves ahead of her first LPGA tournament ... but she's got some major supporters backing her up ahead of her big tee-off.

The social media star -- who's going to compete at The Annika at Pelican Golf Club near Tampa, Florida this week -- told reporters she'd received advice about handling pressure from golf legend Tiger Woods ... and her grandfather Donald, who's a diehard golfer.

Kai said Tiger -- who as you may recall has won several major championships -- advised her to "go with the flow" and try to have fun during The Annika ... hey, if it's coming from one of the GOATs, it's gotta be solid advice.

She also said her grandfather told her to try to keep the nerves away and maintain her composure on the green during the pro-am tournament.

Kai issued a statement regarding her participation in the event, and she stated she was excited to meet and play against "so many of my heroes and mentors."
