So if he is, you know, I’m going to wake up early and go play golf with him. With grandpa, having a great time him. I enjoy my time with him because, you know, I don’t get this often because of all the stuff he’s doing. So it’s always nice to see him, even though I’m exhausted. Still very nice to see him and everything,” Kai said in her latest YouTube video.

When the two played together in the video, Kai began her first hole with a disappointing double-bogey. She then followed it with a show-stealing “birdie rampage.” She almost hit the greens in a par-5 hole in 2 strokes, reflecting her meteoric growth in golf. However, she still struggles with consistency, swapping the irons for the drivers and the other way round.
