Kai Trump‘s latest golf deal has left the internet divided, with many believing she received the sponsorship because of her last name rather than her talent. The eldest child of Donald Trump Jr. and Vanessa Trump is a competitive golfer. She has also reportedly played for The Benjamin School and has signed an apparel endorsement deal with TaylorMade Golf Company. Recently, Kai made an announcement stating she is partnering with The Net Return, a brand known for its high-quality practice nets. The post immediately went viral, sparking debate online.
Some online commenters argued Kai Trump’s deal wasn’t merit-based
Donald Trump’s granddaughter, Kai Trump, has just sealed a deal with The Net Return. It is a high-profile brand that makes top-quality practice nets. The post was shared on Instagram as a joint collaboration between the brand and the 19-year-old golfer. In the photo, Kai can be seen wearing a golf shirt with the brand’s logo as she poses with her club.
The next slide shows a promotional video. Kai wears an athletic outfit and, as she adjusts her ponytail, she puts on a white glove. As she plays the sport, the voiceover narrates, “This is how I train when nobody’s watching. If you want better golf, start here.” Then she adds, “Swing like me, train like me. I’m Kai Trump, official Net Return athlete.”
In the post’s caption, Kai expresses her excitement about joining The Net Return team. She also talks about how proud she feels to partner with a brand that is taking the sport to a new level by making practice easier, more enjoyable, and accessible.
The post immediately captured the attention of viewers, with many congratulating her on the milestone and wishing her good luck. One wrote, “Wow! Kai that’s so, so awesome. Congratulations!” Another wrote, “Smart, beautiful, talented and a loving granddaughter.” However, some online commenters argued that she lacks proper experience in golf. They added that the deal was not based on merit. Others added that she is not even strong enough in the sport, calling the partnership more about name recognition than performance.
