Donald Trump’s eldest granddaughter, Kaya Trump, is already a teenager. It may be hard to believe, but Donald Trump Jr. and Vanessa Trump’s first child is already on his way to becoming a professional golfer. Kaya’s achievements in golf are sure to make her grandfather proud – or perhaps he’s more impressed by her 5ft 9in height.
Donald Sr. can’t stop bragging about Barron Trump’s impressive height and tends to use his size to attack his opponents. Or maybe Kai is still too young for Donald Sr. to pay attention to her. According to his late ex-wife, Ivana Trump, Donald Sr. is not very good with children.
Even the children of Donald Sr.’s supposed favorite child, Ivanka Trump, couldn’t change that. According to Page Six, in a video filmed in March 2024, Donald Sr. was reprimanded for ignoring Ivanka’s son, Joseph, who appeared sad after the meeting. But Kai will soon become an adult and will play his favorite sport. Kai loves playing golf with his grandfather and seems to have grown to love him. Only time will tell what kind of relationship they will have. But judging by how quickly she’s growing, it will take little time.
Kai became Donald Trump’s grandfather.
On May 12, 2007, Donald Trump Jr. and Vanessa Trump gave birth to Kai, marking the beginning of a new generation of Trumps.
Kai Trump practically grew up on the golf course.
Is Kai Trump’s golfing ability a case of nature or nurture? Most likely, both because the girl practically grew up on the golf course. At two and a half years old, Kai was already playing golf at her family’s Trump National Golf Club Westchester in New York, as shown above in September 2009. When she was just a few months old, Kai spent time at Trump National Golf Club, showing that she was Trump by doing an overhead comb that would make Donald Trump proud.
Over the next few years, Donald Trump Jr. and Vanessa Trump continued to expand their brood, making Kai the oldest of five children. In 2011, she became a big sister for the second time when Tristan was born in October. In October 2012, Donald Jr. and Vanessa had another son, Spencer, and Tristan became only a year and a couple of weeks older than him. In June 2014, Kai stopped accepting little siblings when she finally had a sister after Khloe was born.
Going on the campaign trail in 2016, Donald Trump relied on the support of his family.
These included Donald Sr.’s grandchildren. By this point, Kai Trump had already expressed an interest in golf, posing with her grandfather at the groundbreaking of his controversial golf course in Scotland in June 2016. Just recently, she turned nine and reached Donald Sr.’s chest. A few months later, Kai demonstrated her skills next to Tiger Woods.
The golf legend took to the Donald Sr. course in Palm Beach in December 2016 to play with the president-elect and his eldest grandson.
Between 2019 and 2022, Kai Trump experienced an impressive growth spurt. At Ivana Trump’s funeral in July 2022, a 15-year-old girl reached her grandfather’s eyes, as shown in the photo above. Kaye was on her way to becoming a professional golfer as a teenager. On her Instagram, she describes herself as a Callaway-sponsored athlete and notes that she is 5 feet 9 inches tall. Even though Kai won’t graduate until 2026, many believe she is working toward college on a golf scholarship, as the Daily Mail reported in 2023.
According to her bio, her hitting range is already 275 yards, which is on par with the average PGA Tour professional golfer. In March 2024, she won the Women’s Club Championship at Trump International Golf Club West Palm Beach after winning in 2022.
