The 18-year-old, who plays for The Benjamin School, struggled in her first professional start and finished at the bottom of the leaderboard, missing the cut after two rounds.With a growing public profile, Kai said she has learned not to let online comments get to her. Speaking with her aunt, Lara Trump, on My View with Lara Trump, she explained her approach when facing trolls:"I just stay away from it. It doesn’t really affect me because, I don’t know, I know who I am. It doesn’t really matter, to be honest. People say whatever they want to say at the end of the day. I know what’s true and I know the type of person I am. It doesn’t really matter." (via Fox News)Kai Trump reflected on her first LPGA experience, saying the nerves on day one were unlike anything she had felt before."The first day, I’ve never been more nervous in my entire life. That was like the [Republican National Convention] times 30. It was very nerve-racking. For the nerves, I played well the first day. Then, the second day, I kinda went out there and was like, ‘OK, no more nerves.’ The nerves weren’t as bad and I did really well. So, I mean, it was a great experience. Thankful for the opportunity."She started the tournament with an 83 but bounced back with a 75 in the second round. Even though she didn’t make the cut Kai said the experience gave her more confidence as she prepares for college golf. She will join the University of Miami next year as she continues to grow her game.
