Kai Trump proves Kevin Hart wrong with clutch putt
During the challenge, Trump was tasked with making a long putt from a considerable distance.
As soon as she struck the ball, Hart appeared unconvinced.
"She rushed it!" the comedian shouted while spectators waited to see where the ball would end up.
A few moments later, the ball dropped into the hole, prompting loud reactions from the crowd.
After hearing the cheers, Trump immediately went looking for Hart and wasted little time reminding him about his prediction.
"Wait, what were you saying?" she asked.
The moment quickly turned into one of the funniest exchanges of the event when Trump followed up with a joke aimed at Hart's height.
"I can't hear you from up here, I can't hear you from up here!" she said.
Trump then jokingly declared that Hart was "done" and told him it was time to "go home."

The spotlight then shifted to Hart, who had an opportunity to attempt the same putt.
This time, Trump offered him advice on how to handle the tricky shot.
Unlike Trump's successful attempt, Hart's ball drifted away from the hole and missed the target.

The interaction quickly found an audience online after Trump shared the clip on Instagram.
According to reports, the video received more than 154,000 likes, with many users praising her putting skills and laughing at her playful comments directed at Hart.
The viral moment comes as attention surrounding Trump continues to grow.
Recently, body language expert Judi James spoke about the pressure she believes Trump faces as a member of one of America's most recognizable families.
"The family pressure on her here must be tremendous," James told The Irish Star.
She also pointed to what she described as increasing confidence in Trump's public appearances.
"Kai's red carpet pose suggests a growing level of celebrity confidence, especially as she is posing alone rather than draping over a 'plus one' to help her relax," James said.
