Donald Trump’s eldest granddaughter Kai hit the links alongside her grandfather at the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida on Sunday with viewers left wondering who won the round.
Kai – the daughter of Don Jr. and his ex-wife Vanessa – posed for a couple of beaming selfies alongside Donald at the end of a week in which he secured his second term in the White House come January next year.
In a series of short video clips, Donald could be seen looking on from his golf cart, appearing to analyze Kai’s swing as his granddaughter hit a series of shots along the fairway.
‘Sundays with Grandpa’, Kai Trump posted to her social media accounts.

Earlier this summer, Kai was asked who usually wins the matches between the pair and she admitted that, although they are normally close, the former president usually manages to get over the line.
She said: ‘Genuinely, he always gives me a run for my money. It’s pretty close.
‘It’s never really like game over and I’ve won on the 15th hole. He wins a lot of the time. I do have to say that. I’ve got to get better.’
The 17-year-old has recently joined the world of sporting influencers after launching her own YouTube channel.
Kai, an avid golfer just like her grandfather, has already uploaded three videos to the platform featuring a variety of content.

The teenager, who is in her junior year at the Benjamin School, a prestigious $37,000-per-year high school, made her debut with a diary-style video.
The clip gave fans a glimpse into a day in her life as she worked out, hit the mall and got glammed up for a Great Gatsby-themed homecoming.
However, golf – a passion she shares with the president-elect – has naturally taken center stage.
Kai, who committed to play sport at the University of Miami in August, posted a 40-minute-long video showing her taking on Garrett Clark, a popular golf content creator with his own channel, on the fairways.
The Good Good co-founder and Kai went head-to-head with the veteran YouTuber coming out on top by two shots.

In another recent video, she took viewers to one of her grandfather’s many golf courses as she snuck in a few holes of sunset golf at Bedminster in New Jersey – her ‘favorite course in the world.’
She showed off her golfing prowess by hitting driver off the deck and testing out the putter that Bryson DeChambeau won the US Open with earlier this year.
Yet, her most entertaining moments came when she impersonated the president-elect, mimicking his hand gestures and dance moves.
Kai has long been tipped to become the most accomplished golfer of the Trump dynasty – something she now appears set to fulfill.
She won the ladies club championship at her grandfather’s golf course in Palm Beach and has played with some of the biggest stars in the game.
She has already uploaded three videos to the platform, featuring a variety of content

And she credited the former president for helping her achieve her collegiate goal when announcing her commitment to the University of Miami.
‘I would like to thank my Grandpa for giving me access to great courses and tremendous support,’ she said.
‘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,’ she continued.
Her foray into the space of golf content doesn’t come as a huge surprise as she has previously made guest appearances on other channels.

She has also shared the course with her grandpa as a teammate rather than an opponent.
They formed part of a Pro-Am team ahead of the controversial LIV Golf tournament at Trump’s Doral course in Florida.
Kai played alongside uncle Eric Trump, Sergio Garcia, Brooks Koepka and supporting cast of secret service agents.
And the young talent won’t be too far from her family – and her grandfather’s golf courses – when she ultimately flies the nest with the University of Miami’s golf team hitting the fairways at The Biltmore, a golf club roughly nine miles from Trump’s Doral course in Miami.
Kai’s nearly 260-year drive and dedication to the sport helped earn her the Varsity Captain position at the Benjamin School, which Tiger Woods son, Charlie, also attends.

Kai claims on her Instagram page to be part of Callaway Next, ‘the next generation of Callaway Tour Pros.’
Her longest drive is said to be 275 yards. Only 14 players on the LPGA averaged longer in 2023.
She has played with big-hitting DeChambeau, Swedish professional Daniela Holmqvist, two-time world long drive champion Kyle Berkshire and other promising youngsters.
Kai has met Woods and his fellow major winners Dustin Johnson and Patrick Reed.
