President Donald Trump’s 18-year-old grandaughter, Kai Trump, made her LPGA debut in November 2025 at The Annika in Bellaire, Florida. Kai accepted a sponsor’s exemption to participate in the event, which also featured WNBA star Caitlin Clark, which led to her receiving nasty criticism from radical leftists. Unfortunately for the young Trump, her debut didn’t go as she hoped, as her 13-over-83 on day one landed her in last place among the 108-player field.
However, despite her disappointment over the outcome of her performance, she showed class and grace during her post-round interview. “It was pretty cool because I know I hit it far, but kind of playing with the best players in the world and being literally right there or even outdriving on some of the holes, it felt pretty good,” she went on to say. “Felt like my game is in a good spot, and especially only being a senior in high school.”
A report by John Simmons of Outkick pointed out that Kai Trump’s response showed a highly level of maturity, especially with the pressure and setbacks of playing against some of the best golfers in the world. However, a number of radical liberals decided to take shots at the young woman over her performance at the event.
Simmons pointed out that the criticism was over a high school student participating in the first day of an event against professional golfers. The first post shared in the report was from a leftist man who featured a Ukraine flag as the background photo on his account, which said, “Wow…Kai Trump on the first page of the leaderboard.”
The second post bashing Kai was published by a man who claimed to be an assistant to ANTIFA, which was a joke, but lacked any semblance of real humor. “Kai Trump officially became a Trump today!” the man’s post read. “She got into something she didn’t deserve to be in, only securing it because of family wealth, and then she performed far worse than everyone else at it. This is the Trump tradition. DEI and last place.”
A third post was published by a parody account of popular conservative account Catturd. The user, a vile and avowed Trump hater, wrote of the president’s granddaughter, “Kai Trump is 108th out of 108 in the LPGA tournament Trump got her in. MAGA told me she was an excellent golfer and earned her spot.” Simmons had a lot to say in response to the hate Kai received from the radical left.
“I can just see all of these guys anxiously awaiting the next Keith Olbermann rant of insanity to drop and drinking soy milk out of mugs that read ‘Love Wins’ with paper straws. In short, losers,” Simmons wrote in his article. “Have they no shame? Has TDS affected them so much that they are castigating Trump for not performing like a seasoned vet in her professional debut?”

Simmons pointed out that anyone would suffer from a severe case of nerves while playing at such a high-level event, noting that just because that may have negatively impacted her game, that doesn’t mean she didn’t deserve to be there. After all, Kai has already committed to playing college golf for Miami, which is considered a top-50 program. Her performance improved after the first day, playing one over par across seven holes during second day on the course.
