Kai Trump shares the "real reason" why she got into golf
Kai Trump is pursuing her studies at The Benjamin School in Jupiter, Florida. As per NCSA College's website, she has a handicap of 0.2. Her profile states that she has played golf for 13 years with two years on her high school varsity team and is also the team captain this year.
In a recent video posted on her YouTube channel, the 17-year-old was seen practicing golf at the Trump National Golf Club, Bedminster. In the video, she also shared that she was given both a golf racket and a tennis racket at the age of two by her mother Vanessa, and eventually chose golf.
Sharing why she chose golf over other sports, she said:
"I mean the real reason why I also got into golf is because my mom ain't going to Westchester and she would just throw a throw a ball at me and like I just have to like putt it or chip it or whatever and that's how I really got into golf. It's so nice to be back here and like play a similar course that I grew up playing on." (4:15)
During the video, Kai Trump shared that she was practicing with Bryson DeChambeau's US Open putter. DeChambeau won the 2024 US Open by a shot over Rory McIlroy.
