Kai Trump, the eldest granddaughter of former President Trump, announced Sunday her verbal commitment to play collegiate golf at the University of Miami.
Kai, 17, will join the Hurricanes in the 2026 signing class. The post doesn’t mention whether she will attend the school on scholarship, but she gave a shoutout to the former President, saying, “I would like to thank my Grandpa for giving me access to great courses and tremendous support.”
She has played with Donald Trump in the spotlight before during a LIV Golf pro-am. As far as rankings, she hasn’t played any qualifying events to be ranked in the World Amateur Golf Ranking or in the American Junior Golf Association’s rankings.
“I am beyond excited to announce my verbal commitment to the University of Miami. I would like to thank my mom, Vanessa, and my dad, Don, for always supporting me through my journey,” Kai said in her post, which you can see here.
During an address at the Republican National Convention in July, Kai said about her grandpa: “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.”
