"To me, he's just a normal grandpa. Always has been. I would just say it's like having a normal grandpa. There is nothing different I would say."

"It's pretty cool obviously, but to me, it's just normal."

The president is famously obsessed with golf and constantly boasts about his own skills, but Kai was diplomatic when asked about their matches together.

"He's pretty good. He's pretty good," she said.

"We have some tight matches. Yeah, can't say much. Yeah, we have some tight matches."

Asked specifically if she has beaten her grandfather, she added: "I'll leave that up to you to decide.

"We play a lot. We have a great time out there. We're always on the same team as well."
