During the July 2024 RNC, Kai praised her grandfather while speaking to a large crowd in Milwaukee. She also recalled her reaction to learning that Donald was shot at his rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, shortly beforehand.
“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,” she said to a round of cheers. “On Saturday, I was shocked when I heard that he has been shot and I just wanted to know if he was OK.”
Pointing out that her grandpa has been “through hell, and he’s still standing,” Kai called Donald “such an inspiration.”
“The media makes my grandpa seem like a different person. But I know him for who he is,” she insisted. “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 Enjoys Playing Golf
According to multiple outlets, while Kai has enjoyed playing tennis, she’s become particularly known for her golf game. The 17-year-old has been seen playing the sport at various family events over the years.
In a recent video of them golfing together, Don Jr. shared, “When the little girl calls, you go. She’s the boss. Not many times do you get the call from the 17-year-old that she wants to hang out with Dad, so even if it’s content creation, I’m happy just to be involved.”
According to the Washington Post, Kai began playing golf at just 2 years old when her mother gifted her a golf club. Now, the high school junior aspires to become a professional golfer and pursue a career in social media. She has already committed to play golf at the University of Miami.
Additionally, on March 23, pro golfer Tiger Woods confirmed he is dating Kai’s mother, Vanessa.
