Golf and the Trump family go hand-in-hand.
Donald Trump’s name is part of some of the world’s most renowned golf courses.
Now, his granddaughter is taking her golf talents with her to college.
Over the weekend, Trump’s eldest granddaughter, Kai, announced her commitment to play golf at the University of Miami.
Kai, the daughter of Don Jr. and Vanessa, said she was “beyond excited” to announce her decision.
“I would like to thank my mom, Vanessa, and my dad, Don, for always supporting me through my journey. I would also like to thank my great team for getting me to this point,” she wrote on Instagram.
Kai even gave a shout-out to her grandfather for allowing her the opportunity to play at once-in-a-lifetime golf courses throughout her young career.
“I would like to thank my Grandpa for giving me access to great courses and tremendous support,” she wrote.
“I would also like to thank my entire family for always encouraging and pushing me to be the best person I can possibly be. I would like to thank my friends for always cheering me on. Last but not least I would love to thank Coach Janice and Coach Jim for giving me this opportunity. I am supper [sic] excited to be a cane and represent the University of Miami. Gooo Canes!”
Kai gained popularity during the Republican National Convention, when her father said she wanted to speak shortly after the assassination attempt against her grandfather.
“He calls me during the middle of the school day to ask how my golf game is going and tells me all about his, but then I have to remind him that I’m in school and I’ll have to call him back later,” Trump’s granddaughter told a raucous crowd in Milwaukee.
“Grandpa, you are such an inspiration and I love you,” Kai said. “The media makes my grandpa seem like a different person. But I know him for who he is. He’s very caring and loving. He truly wants the best for this country. And he will fight every single day to make America great again. Thank you very much.”
Kai also recently took to Instagram to express her admiration for her grandfather’s unwavering will to wrangle the U.S. political system for the people. She wrote, “We love you Grandpa. Never stop fighting!”
