Kai Trump, the granddaughter of President-elect Trump, had a little fun on the golf course when she interviewed two-time Masters winner Scottie Scheffler during the LIV-PGA showdown on Tuesday

Speaking with Scheffler ahead of his and Rory McIlroy’s exhibition match against LIV Golf stars Bryson DeChambeau and Brooks Koepka, Kai asked Scheffler about his May 2024 arrest when he was charged with several offenses, including second-degree assault of a police officer. 

The incident took place as Scheffler was attempting to enter Valhalla Golf Club, site of the PGA Championship, before the second round on May 17.

Kai began the interview asking, "Scottie, you’re too nice, but how was jail?" 

"You know, honestly, it was a bit boring," he said with a laugh. "There’s not really much to do in there. I was in a cell by myself and just kind of sitting in there looking at the walls. So, it was a little boring."

Kai, who has captivated golf fans with her vlogs on YouTube following Trump’s successful bid for the White House, then made a lighthearted joke at the expense of Tiger Woods, who had his own run-in with law in 2017.

"I mean, orange is not a bad color though – on you, honestly. You pulled it off just like Tiger Woods," she joked. 

Scheffler quipped back, "I prefer the burnt orange a little bit more than the jail cell orange." 

The charges stemming from Scheffler’s arrest were later dropped. An internal investigation also found that three Louisville Metro Police officers violated police policy when they failed to have their bodycams activated.

Detective Bryan Gillis received "corrective action" for his role. 

Police were investigating the death of a volunteer, who was hit by a bus just outside the golf course, when the Scheffler incident occurred.

Rory McIlroy and Charles Barkley had some playful banter while the Northern Irishman participated in "The Showdown" golf match with Scottie Scheffler against LIV Golf stars Bryson DeChambeau and Brooks Koepka.

As McIlroy walked down the fairway, Barkley asked how much he eats during a round. McIlroy was eating a power bar while the Basketball Hall of Famer chatted with him.

"Not as much as you Chuck," McIlroy fired back.

Barkley laughed and responded that he was on a diet.

For what it’s worth, the former Philadelphia 76ers star has admitted to taking Mounjaro to help with his weight loss and deal with Type 2 diabetes. Mounjaro, which is a brand name for tirzepatide, helps with weight loss by curbing appetite and improving how the body breaks down sugar and fat.

"I started at 352 [pounds] and I’m down to 290," Barkley has said previously. "I’m starting to feel like a human being, not a fat a-- anymore."

BRYSON DECHAMBEAU HITS RORY MCILROY WITH EPIC JAB ABOUT US OPEN CHOKE: 'DID IT TO YOURSELF'

McIlroy and Scheffler ended up defeating their LIV Golf counterparts. They only needed 14 holes to do it.

The format was one point for a six-hole four-ball match, one point for a six-hole foursomes match and one point each for singles over the last six holes.

"I'd love to have another opportunity," DeChambeau said. "It was a bit of a pillow fight for us."

McIlroy and Scheffler each won $5 million in paid cryptocurrency.

The LIV-PGA rivalry has reached a new level.

Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy were taking on Bryson DeChambeau and Brooks Koepka in a two-on-two in Las Vegas Tuesday.

The latter two players defected from the PGA Tour to LIV about 2½ years ago, and McIlroy long lamented the players who had done so before recently doing an about-face.

The four golfers are in Vegas for a PGA-LIV showdown, and there's now an added wrinkle.

On the second hole, DeChambeau, the reigning U.S. Open champion, mashed a golf ball that had 324 yards of carry.

Bubba Watson, who is on the broadcast team, said DeChambeau's drive hit Scheffler's father.

The event is taking place at Shadow Creek Golf Club, where the first edition of "The Match" took place between Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson.

Leading up to the match, DeChambeau cracked a joke about McIlroy's choke job at the U.S. Open as the two shared the driving range together. 

McIlroy bogeyed three of his final four holes and missed two putts that were both inside of three feet. DeChambeau took advantage with his legendary bunker save to win his second U.S. Open.

McIlroy admitted he wanted to "go up against Bryson and try to get him back for what he did to me at the U.S. Open."

"Well, to be fair, you kind of did it to yourself," DeChambeau replied.

The event features a combined 13 major championship victories from the four golfers — five from Koepka, four from McIlroy and two apiece from Scheffler and DeChambeau.

Scheffler and DeChambeau were paired up with one another for last year's Ryder Cup on Team USA.

Bryson DeChambeau pulled off one of the great golf shots after his up-and-down from the bunker on 18 at Pinehurst No. 2 this summer to win the U.S. Open — but he knows he got some help.

McIlroy bogeyed three of his final four holes and missed two putts that were both inside of three feet. DeChambeau took advantage with his legendary bunker save to win his second U.S. Open.

The two golfers will be on the links on Tuesday in the "LIV vs. PGA" edition of "The Match," where frenemies DeChambeau and Brooks Koepka will team up against McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler.

McIlroy and DeChambeau hit the range beside one another earlier this week, where McIlroy admitted he wanted to "go up against Bryson and try to get him back for what he did to me at the U.S. Open."

DeChambeau, though, didn't let him slide that easily.

"Well, to be fair, you kind of did it to yourself," DeChambeau hit back.

McIlroy took the crack on the chin as the crowd burst out in laughter.

In speaking with Fox News Digital over the summer, Dechambeau couldn't help but admit that he thought about that day at Pinehurst "every day."

"The bunker shot is amazing, but there’s a couple shots I hit during the course of that week. The back of No. 8, I hit it over the green twice, and I get up-and-down twice. I win the tournament because of that," DeChambeau told Fox News Digital back in August. "If I don’t get that up-and-down, I may not win the tournament. It’s actually the culmination of the whole week and how things progressed that led to it being such a memorable week."

"You never want to lose a championship that way. You want to see someone make a putt and do something crazy and cool. But I can tell you, there was a battle between us. It was definitely LIV vs. PGA for sure," DeCheambeau added.

Had DeChambeau not knocked down that par putt on 18, DeChambeau and McIlroy would have faced off in the first aggregate playoff in U.S. Open history. 

Well, maybe McIlroy can get some sort of revenge this week at Shadow Creek.

LIV Golf star Phil Mickelson weighed in on Daniel Penny’s acquittal in the chokehold death of Jordan Neely on Monday.

Mickelson expressed his support for Penny last week after a manslaughter charge was dismissed. He then called the jury’s decision "common sense."

"Finally a little common sense," Mickelson wrote in a post on X. "There never should have been a trial. He should be commended for selfless actions to protect the other passengers and those who brought charges should be out of a job."

Penny was found not guilty of criminally negligent homicide.

Penny, a 26-year-old Marine veteran and architecture student, was charged with manslaughter and criminally negligent homicide for the subway chokehold death of Neely, a 30-year-old homeless man with schizophrenia who barged onto the train shouting death threats while high on a type of synthetic marijuana known as K2.

In a statement, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, whose office secured charges against Penny with a grand jury indictment after police had questioned and released him in connection with the incident, said he would respect the jury's decision. However, he also condemned "unacceptable" behavior that he said had targeted his prosecutors.

"Unfortunately, over the duration of this trial, talented career prosecutors and their family members were besieged with hate and threats – on social media, by phone and over email," he said. "Simply put, this is unacceptable, and everyone, no matter your opinion on this case, should condemn it."

Mickelson also expressed his support for Penny earlier in the day.

"If a deranged individual threatens to kill you let’s hope there’s a Daniel Penny around," he wrote on X in part.

LIV Golf star Phil Mickelson wrote out his "random thoughts" on social media on Sunday night, apparently while watching the Kansas City Chiefs’ win over the Los Angeles Chargers.

Mickelson’s X post included another take on Daniel Penny.

"Random thoughts Mike Tirico and Cris Collinsworth are great in the booth. ‘Day of the Jackal’ is an incredible show," he wrote.

"If a deranged individual threatens to kill you let’s hope there’s a Daniel Penny around."

A New York jury dismissed a manslaughter charge against Penny on Friday afternoon. The jury is set to deliberate a lesser charge this week.

Mickelson had thoughts on Penny after the initial verdict came in last week.

"Thank you Daniel for serving your country and for protecting the many passengers whose lives were threatened by this violent and deranged individual," he wrote on X.

Mickelson agreed that Penny was a "model citizen" who should be praised instead of vilified.

The jury in the Penny case was initially deadlocked and told the judge they could not reach a unanimous decision.

The judge initially ruled the jury could not deliberate on the second charge unless they found Penny not guilty of manslaughter for some reason other than that the chokehold was justified. However, after jurors said they were deadlocked a second time, Assistant Manhattan District Attorney Dafna Yoran asked to have the most serious charge dismissed to allow the jury to debate the lesser charge of criminally negligent homicide, which carries a maximum punishment of four years in prison.

The charge requires prosecutors to prove Penny acted with recklessness when he grabbed Jordan Neely in a chokehold. Neely barged onto the train while high on drugs, threatening to kill passengers during a psychotic episode, according to trial testimony.

Neely was a 30-year-old with schizophrenia who said someone was going to "die today" and that he did not care about going to prison for life. Penny grabbed him from behind in a chokehold to halt the outburst.

Neely later died. He had an active arrest warrant at the time. He was high on K2, a synthetic marijuana drug that functions as a stimulant, and his lengthy criminal record included an alleged 2021 assault on a 67-year-old woman at another subway station.

The jury in Daniel Penny's manslaughter case may have been deadlocked, but Phil Mickelson's opinion is clear.

The 54-year-old golfer shared a post from political commentator Collin Rugg on X that called Penny a "model citizen…that every mayor of every city should want more of," a "hero" and a "breed of young men who are becoming less and less common."

Before the most serious charge was dismissed, Penny was on trial for second-degree manslaughter for killing Jordan Neely after placing him in a chokehold on a subway.

Neely died later on.

Mickelson agreed with Rugg's words.

"Agree. Thank you Daniel for serving your country and for protecting the many passengers whose lives were threatened by this violent and deranged individual," Mickelson wrote.

Despite the jury being deadlocked, the judge sent jurors back to deliberate more Friday morning, but they told the court shortly after 3 p.m. they still could not reach a unanimous decision.

LIV Golf star Bryson DeChambeau was among those who went to Texas to watch SpaceX CEO Elon Musk last week.

DeChambeau was with President-elect Donald Trump, Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and several others as SpaceX scientists sought to push the rocket to the max in order to learn more about heat shields and which shields and configurations may perform best, among other things.

The two-time major champion appeared on Trump’s granddaughter Kai Trump’s vlog during the rocket launch. She posted the highlights of her time at the event on Tuesday.

"I want to do that so badly," DeChambeau said of his aspirations to go to space. "I would literally cry for probably a good couple hours. Being up there and looking at the Earth."

DeChambeau also joked he would design a special golf club for Kai Trump, who verbally committed to play for the Miami Hurricanes.

"I’ll design a rocket ship golf club with boosters on the back so it would increase your swing speed … just for you," he said.

Kai responded, "Wow, that hurt."

DeChambeau had tightened his ties with the current president-elect over the summer. Trump appeared on his golf channel.

DeChambeau told Fox News Digital at the time he had no regrets about it.

"There’s always risk associated to that. But from my perspective, it was focused on entertainment," DeChambeau said to Fox News Digital back in August at Maridoe Golf Club, the site of the LIV Golf Team Championship. "We can talk about politics — that’s a whole different conversation, something that I was not trying to do on my YouTube channel. It was solely on providing great entertainment."

President-elect Trump even invited DeChambeau on stage shortly after winning the election. He sported a "Make America Great Again" hat, walked on stage but did not speak.

President-elect Trump hosted PGA Tour champion Dustin Johnson at Trump International Golf Course Wednesday. 

Johnson's brother, Austin Johnson, shared photos and videos of the round in an Instagram post. The footage showed the two brothers watching Trump take some practice swings before he took a healthy stroke and sent the ball flying in a straight line toward the hole. 

The crack of contact between Trump's club and the ball echoed thunderously around the course.

"A beauty there, sir," Austin said. "Right down the middle."

Dustin Johnson is one of the many golf superstars to endorse Trump, joining Bryson DeChambeau, Anthony Kim and John Daly. 

Johnson attended Trump's party Nov. 6 to celebrate the president's 2024 election victory alongside NHL legend Wayne Gretzky. Gretzky's daughter, Paulina, is married to Johnson, and they've been together since 2013.

Johnson has been playing golf with Trump since November 2017, when Trump hosted Johnson and Tiger Woods at Trump National Golf Club in Jupiter, Florida. Johnson was ranked No. 1 in the world at the time. 

Trump's golf game has been a long recognized aspect of his lifestyle and past presidency. Trump has golfed with the likes of the sport's top stars, including DeChambeau, Johnson, Rory McIlroy and Woods. He's also played with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and Republican allies like Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul and former Georgia Sen. David Perdue.

DONALD TRUMP’S GRANDDAUGHTER, BUDDING GOLF STAR KAI TRUMP, REACTS TO ELECTION WIN: ‘FUTURE GONNA BE FANTASTIC'

South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol has reportedly started practicing his golf game in anticipation of meeting President-elect Trump.

Yoon started the practice after a brief phone call with Trump congratulating him on his victory over Vice President Kamala Harris. Days after the call, Yoon "got out his golf clubs for the first time in eight years and resumed his golf practice," his office told NBC News.

The sport also plays a big role in the Trump family. 

Kai Trump, the 17-year-old daughter of Donald Trump, Jr., posted to Instagram, sharing recent pictures with her grandfather at Trump International Golf Club West Palm Beach, a few miles west of Mar-a-Lago.

"Sundays with Grandpa," the proud granddaughter captioned the post, adding a heart. The post featured a selfie Kai Trump shared with the president-elect, along with videos she shot on the golf course and a picture with Tesla CEO Elon Musk. 

Kai returned to Trump National Golf Club Bedminster to play the front nine of what she said is one of her and her grandfather’s favorite courses. During her round, Kai revealed she recently listened to the many voicemails Trump left her. 

"So, yesterday I was going through my voicemails. I saw a few voicemails from my grandpa because, if I call him, he always picks up. But, if he doesn’t — if he’s in an interview or whatever — he’ll call me back, and it's always at 12 o’clock at night, and, obviously, I’m sleeping at 12," Kai said with a laugh.

Behind DeChambeau were both Trump, his son Eric, and Ted Cruz. Elon Musk was, of course, in was attendance as well.

The SpaceX Starship splashed down in the Indian Ocean at approximately 6:05 p.m. ET on Tuesday.

"Successful ocean landing of Starship!" Musk wrote in a post on X. "We will do one more ocean landing of the ship. If that goes well, then SpaceX will attempt to catch the ship with the tower."

The announcers on the SpaceX feed appeared pleased with the performance of the rocket and said scientists were pushing this rocket to the max in order to learn as much as possible about the heat shields and which shields and configurations of shields might perform best, among other things. 

The announcers added that there are no plans to recover the rocket.
