Donald Trump's granddaughter Kai is set to make her LPGA Tour golfing debut next month after receiving a sponsor's exemption.
The 18-year-old is the eldest daughter of the American President's son, Donald Trump Jr, 47, and his ex-wife Vanessa Trump, 47.
She's been making a name for herself in the sporting world, often appearing with her very famous family at public events, as well as building up a following on social media.
Over on YouTube, the teen has a whopping 1.32 million subscribers, where she recently posted a vlog from the White House's Oval Office.

In a video titled: 'I Went to the Ryder Cup With My Grandpa (POTUS)," Kai took fans along for the day as she attended the coveted golf tournament with her grandad, Trump.
She wrote in the description: "I had the best time going to the Ryder Cup with my grandpa - come along for the behind-the-scenes of this special trip!"
And in one clip, she said: "There's no better place to scroll on TikTok than the Oval Office."
But as we say, next month she's about to get very busy as the 18-year-old has received a sponsor's exemption to play at The Annika, which has a huge prize pot of $3.25m (£2.45m).
The event is set to be held at the Pelican Golf Club in Belleair, Florida from 13 to 16 November.
For those who aren't familiar, the LPGA - The Ladies Professional Golf Association - is an American organisation for female golfers, and The Annika is a pro tournament on the tour.
As per The Guardian, Kai said in a press release: "My dream has been to compete with the best in the world on the LPGA Tour. This event will be an incredible experience.
"I look forward to meeting and competing against so many of my heroes and mentors in golf as I make my LPGA Tour debut."
The tournament is a prestigious one and reportedly has one of the strongest fields of the year, with Nelly Korda being the defending champion.
Ricki Lasky, the chief tour business and operations officer at the LPGA, added: "Sponsor invitations are an important way to spotlight emerging talent and bring new attention to our tournaments and the LPGA.
"Kai’s broad following and reach are helping introduce golf to new audiences, especially among younger fans. We’re excited to see her take this next step in her journey."
Kai is currently a senior at The Benjamin School in Palm Beach County and she already committed to play golf for the Miami Hurricanes next year. The teen also competes in amateur events nationally with the American Junior Golf Association, as well as locally in Florida.
The Guardian reports that she's No 461 in the AJGA Girls ranking, after playing three events so far this year.
Kai has an impressive total of more than 6 million combined followers across four social media platforms and she also recently started up her own an apparel and lifestyle brand, which is aimed at empowering young women in sports.
