One of America's highest-profile varsity golfers is once again teeing it up in Palm Beach County this fall.

Kai Trump, the eldest grandchild of U.S. President Donald J. Trump, is playing for the Benjamin School golf team in Florida High School Athletic Association competition.

The talented start has helped put the Bucs into state championship conversations at the midway point of the Florida golf regular season.

Benjamin's girls golf team are the top-ranked girls team in Palm Beach County with a No. 5 ranking in Florida and No. 21 nationally as of Sept. 24.

Senior Kaitlyn Hummers and freshman Reese McMillan, who won the 41st Nicklaus Junior Golf Championship this summer, tied for first place individually at the Palm League Invitational while leading a Bucs sweep of the team titles at the Biltmore.

While Trump, a University of Miami commit, has not won a varsity event this season, she's yet to finish outside the top 5 in any tournament she's played.

Here's a look at how Trump has fared in varsity golf competition so far this season:
