Summary
In the United States, Donald Trump made a notable appearance at a LIV Golf event held at his golf course in Bedminster, New Jersey. This event took place just under a year after his participation in the Ryder Cup. Trump arrived at the venue during the third round of the LIV Golf's New York event, where he was seen driving a golf cart through a crowd of enthusiastic fans who cheered his presence. The event was marked by a significant thunderstorm that swept across the Northeastern United States, yet this did not deter the excitement surrounding Trump's arrival.
As he made his way to the clubhouse, Trump was accompanied by a substantial security detail. He took the time to greet fans, coinciding with the moment when Bryson DeChambeau, a prominent figure in the LIV Golf series and a YouTuber, was teeing off on the 16th hole. Trump's support for LIV Golf has been longstanding, especially since the tour was previously backed by the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF). Earlier in the year, the PIF announced its decision to cease financial support for LIV Golf after the current season concluded.
