The former president, an avid golfer, possesses multiple golf courses and regularly matches against Kai. "He's pretty good. I can't reveal details but we have some close matches," she revealed. The golfer shared that Trump, who won't be present, told her: "Just stay calm." "My grandpa essentially told me to compete and have fun," she explained. "From my perspective, he's simply a normal grandpa. He can't make it for the tournament. He's busy with presidential duties, making him rather occupied." While still amateur, Kai has competed in a mere three competitions this year and holds the 461st position in AJGA listings. However she can get advice from 15-time major champion, who is dating her mother. "He represents the greatest golfer worldwide," Kai expressed. "And he's a more impressive human being. He told me to play, enjoy myself, adapting to whatever happens." The golfer will compete against several top competitors in the sport at this tournament, featuring world number two the champion, England's golfer Hull, Lexi Thompson and last year's winner Lilia Vu.
