“I just wanna say that I play a lot of golf with Kai and she's a fantastic golfer,” he said.

“She's a scratch player, which is amazing. I think some day in the not-too-distant future she's gonna be much better than scratch.”

Trump’s golf game is no secret. Most recently, he took home the win at the senior club championship held at his own Trump National Golf Club in Jupiter, Florida.

Kai, daughter of Donald Trump Jr and Vanessa Trump announced her commitment to the University of Miami back in August, sharing her excitement on Instagram about joining the Hurricanes.

“I would like to thank my mom, Vanessa, and my dad, Don, for always supporting me through my journey. I would also like to thank my great team for getting me to this point,” she wrote.
