Kai Trump declared that she was “pretty proud” of herself after carding an impressive golf round while playing alongside her grandfather, President Donald Trump.
On Saturday, Kai – who recently may have let a secret about Donald’s health slip – offered a glimpse into her recent Ryder Cup trip and golf outing with the POTUS in a behind-the-scenes vlog uploaded to YouTube.
This follows her recent display of true character after experiencing a meltdown at a golf tournament, while her grandfather made his feelings clear on her choice of college.

“This is a huge vlog,” she started. “I am going to Washington DC right now to then go to the Ryder Cup with my grandpa. So I’m looking forward to this.
“I’m really excited to finally go to the Ryder Cup. I’ve never been, but obviously my whole life I’ve always heard about it. I’ve always watched it, so I’m looking forward to going tomorrow.”
During the opening portion of the nearly 30-minute video, Kai captured her experience at the biennial competition between Team USA and Europe at Bethpage Black. While walking onto the course beside Donald, she recorded multiple players from the Stars and Stripes teeing off as she stood behind a bulletproof glass barrier.
“I had the best time of my entire life today,” Kai declared. “It was so nice to just be there and support Team USA and all the support for the fans and everything.
“It was just crazy. I had a great experience and probably one of the coolest things I’ve ever been to. I would say that Ryder Cup, the Masters, then UFC but really cool experience.”

After the once-in-a-lifetime encounter, Kai tested her abilities at Trump National Golf Course in Washington DC. “Now we’re heading back to the White House and I’m looking forward to playing golf with Grandpa tomorrow,” she remarked.
“I always love coming to visit and getting to spend quality time with him.”
Following a par on Hole No. 1, Kai recorded a birdie on the second by chipping in a stunning shot from the edge of the green. Multiple holes afterward, Kai drained a short putt, causing Donald to comment: “Good birdie.”
When another person mentioned it was the fourth birdie scored by the group on that hole, the 79 year old told his granddaughter: “Those were two good shots, honey. You’ve made three birdies today.”

After the round concluded, Kai disclosed that she finished one-over for the day as she announced her score, which sums up how impressive her ability on the course is at such a young age.
“Just finished playing,” she stated. “Shot one-under the front. Shot two-over the back. So one-over through I think it was 6,700 yards, so pretty far but you know pretty proud.
“I’m pretty proud of myself. Played well. Fought hard. Made a lot of up and downs and now we’re gonna have lunch with grandpa.”
In a recent interview with Fox News, Kai opened up about her experiences playing golf with Donald during his presidency. “I just don’t view it as him being the president. I view it as, he’s my grandpa,” she shared.
“We’re gonna go out there and play golf. We play golf all the time. It’s nothing new.”
