Summary

Kai Trump, the granddaughter of former President Donald Trump, announced on social media that she has undergone surgery on her left wrist. The injury occurred during her first tournament of the season with the University of Miami golf team, although she did not specify its severity.

In her post, she expressed her disappointment, stating, "While I had hoped to avoid surgery, after talks with my family, coaches, and athletic training staff I know I made the best decision for my long-term health and my future in the game I love."

Kai, a freshman at Miami, is one of nine players on the roster. Despite her setback, the Hurricanes have started the season strong, winning two out of three events and finishing as the runner-up in the other, placing them at No. 7 in the national rankings.

She emphasized in her post, "For now, it’s all about healing, and trusting the process. I can’t wait to be back with my team, doing what I love."

Kai made her professional debut last November and shared advice from her grandfather:
