Who is Kai Trump? Donald’s 16-year-old granddaughter talking at RNC
Donald Trump‘s 17-year-old granddaughter Kai took the stage at the Republican National Convention on Wednesday to run through her first major appearance in politics.
The daughter of Don Jr. and his ex-wife Vanessa will address thousands of GOP delegates and fans on the third night of the event at the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
‘I am honored to be speaking at the RNC at 9 pm (CDT),’ she posted on social media along on Wednesday hours before her major appearance.

She will take the stage before her father and newly-anointed running mate J.D. Vance and his wife Usha.

Hours before her appearance she was given a rundown of how the night will unfold by event producers and with the help of her mother and father.
Kai is the eldest of Trump’s 10 grandchildren and made an appearance in the spotlight during his first term in the White House.
The teenager attended the inauguration and the White House Easter Egg roll. She is also a golfer and has a YouTube page dedicated to her time on the links.
On Wednesday she will make her debut on the national stage in primetime.
Kai has won the ladies club championship at her grandfather’s golf course in Palm Beach, Florida, and has played with some of the biggest stars in the game.
The teenager – daughter of Donald Jr and his ex-wife Vanessa – claims to be part of Callaway Next, ‘the next generation of Callaway Tour Pros.’
Her longest drive is said to be 275 yards. Only 14 players on the LPGA average longer in 2023.
She has played with big-hitting Bryson DeChambeau, Swedish professional Daniela Holmqvist, two-time world long drive champion Kyle Berkshire and other promising youngsters.

She has met Tiger Woods and his fellow major winners Dustin Johnson and Patrick Reed.
She has also shared the course with her ‘grandpa’.
They formed part a Pro-Am team ahead of the controversial LIV Golf tournament at Trump’s Doral course in Florida.
Kai played alongside Eric Trump, Sergio Garcia, US PGA Champion Brooks Koepka and supporting cast of secret service agents.

Kai claims that she can already drive the ball a remarkable 275 yards at the age of 16
Between them they shot 9-under, the joint-lowest score of the day.
The teenager claimed to end the round with five birdies; on the final hole, she watched her grandpa top his approach shot before sticking hers within 10ft of the flag.
Trump’s empire of courses has allowed Kai to hone her skills and trick shots across America.
Some members in Palm Beach have suggested she is talented and devoted enough to earn a college scholarship.
