Trump’s granddaughter Kai shows off impressive golf swing after impassioned RNC speech
Kai Madison Trump has raised eyebrows not only for her speech at the RNC over the past 24 hours, but also for her golfing skills, with fans of the sport and Trump voters alike flooding her with responses on social media.
Golf fans, some of whom are Republican, took to Instagram on Thursday to wonder what it would take to get the 17-year-old to play alongside No. 1 Nelly Korda on the LPGA, after Kai had praised her grandfather for president in Milwaukee the day before. In a post highlighting her swing from about a week ago, they wondered what it would take to get the 17-year-old to play alongside the LPGA’s No. 1.
“Beautiful! I’m sure the college students are watching that swing,” said one fan.
“LPGA incoming,” shared another, while someone else claimed, “You’re gonna be the best, it’s just a matter of time. No politics, just golf.”
Kai appears to be sponsored by Callaway and Greyson Scarlett and can certainly cover a long distance, having once successfully attempted a 275 yard drive.
