Donald Trump's granddaughter, Kai Trump, is set to become a collegiate athlete.
Kai Trump, the 17-year-old granddaughter of the United States President elect, is set to play college golf for the University of Miami. Kai Trump, who has grown up playing on the course with her grandfather, announced her college commitment last year.
"I am super excited to be a Cane and represent the University of Miami. Gooo Canes!" she wrote in an Instagram post.
"I would like to thank my mom, Vanessa, and my dad, Don, for always supporting me through my journey. I would also like to thank my great team for getting me to this point," she said. "I would like to thank my Grandpa for giving me access to great courses and tremendous support."
Kai Trump has continued to trend on social media. She started her own YouTube channel, Kai Trump, and has close to 700,000 followers. Kai has already posted 40 videos.
She was rocking some Miami Hurricanes gear in her latest video, titled "My Life Is About To Change," when she discusses her grandfather taking office next week. The inauguration is set for Monday.

Kai Trump has been making headlines for some of her social media posts, too. In a recent Q&A with fans, she didn't hesitate naming her "celebrity crush."
"Celebrity crush?" the oldest grandchild of Donald Trump was asked by a fan.
Kai pretended to play coy for a bit, before quickly answering the question.
"Oh my God, I know. Why do I need my phone? His name is Drew Starkey. Do you guys know him — 'Outer Banks?'"
The "Outer Banks" star has more than five million followers on his Instagram page. He's known for his role in the teen show, though he's also been in "The Devil All The Time," "Queer," "The Terminal List" and more.
Kai Trump, meanwhile, is expected to be in attendance at the inauguration on Monday, along with the rest of her family.
