Kai Trump Is Focused on Her Golf Career

Kai Trump said she'll be endlessly practicing golf to ensure she reaches peak level.
In July, Kai spoke with Fox News Digital about what she believes it will take to make her mark on the course alongside fellow Hurricanes.
“Just playing a lot of events, just gaining experience,” she explained of her preparations for collegiate golf. “But also practice. If I have two hours, I’m not gonna hit a few balls, go on my phone and scroll. No, I’m going to take full-on advantage with the time I have on the course.”
“I think that’s going to get me to the next level for sure, as well as just training in the gym, getting stronger and playing more rounds,” she added. “The more golf I play, the better I’ll do. Getting experience. Miami gave me a great opportunity, and I’m really looking forward to that.”
