President Donald Trump is at his second golf tournament in as many weeks, both of which were at courses he owns.

A week after catching PGA Tour action at his Doral course in South Florida, Trump motorcaded to Trump National Golf Course Washington D.C. in Sterling, Virginia, to watch LIV golfers.

Trump arrived at a presidential suite via golf cart where his son, Eric, was seated with someone from the Public Investment Fund, whom the president shook hands with.

Amid the uncertainty of LIV Golf after the league announced the Saudis would no longer fund it after this season, Trump said last week that LIV golfers returning to the PGA Tour would be beneficial to the sport.

“I do believe that all of the golfers should be playing against each other. They were viewing something as a monopoly, but it’s swaying away. It should be the opposite of a monopoly,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office last Thursday.

“I want to see Rory [McIlroy] playing Bryson DeChambeau. I want to see big Jon Rahm playing Scottie, who is so great. Scottie Scheffler is great. They have great players on LIV, but it’s almost like people want to see that. That’s why the Masters was so good, because you saw everybody together.

“The tour wants to have the best players. You can’t have the best player that they’re boycotting now. They may do something, you know, a little bit, but they’ll all be back on tour, and it’ll be great. I don’t know what’s happening with LIV.”

Trump has attended LIV events at his courses in the past. This is one of two LIV events at a Trump course this year, as they’ll head to Bedminster, New Jersey in August.

The Cadillac Championship last week, won by Cameron Young, was the first time in a decade that the PGA Tour was at one of Trump’s courses.

Trump was also in attendance for the first day of the Ryder Cup last year at Bethpage Black in New York.

Jim Furyk says Tiger Woods will have a spot on his 2027 Ryder Cup staff despite DUI arrest

Published

on

Tiger Woods’ future, both within and outside the game of golf, is an uncertainty at this point following his March DUI arrest, but U.S. Ryder Cup captain Jim Furyk wouldn’t mind putting something on the big cat’s calendar.

Woods was involved in a two-car accident on Jupiter Island, Florida, on March 27 and charged with two misdemeanors: DUI with property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test. The 15-time major winner cleared 0.00 results on both breathalyzer samples he provided, but his refusal to submit to a urine test resulted in him being charged.

Woods was previously arrested in May 2017 on charges of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs after he was found asleep in his car.

USGA SHARES TIGER WOODS STATUS UPDATE WITH US OPEN FAST APPROACHING

Four days after the accident and subsequent arrest, Woods announced that he would be stepping away from golf to “seek treatment and focus on my health.” He was granted permission to travel outside the United States to begin treatment.

Speaking ahead of this week’s PGA Championship at Aronimink Golf Club, Furyk admitted that he had not talked to Woods since his March arrest, but made it clear he’d have a spot on his 2027 Ryder Cup staff.

“We haven’t spoken yet. I think, out of kind of courtesy for him and his family and I know maybe a road to health, I haven’t reached out, but I will,” Furyk explained.

“Definitely. We’ll see where that role may fall,” Furyk continued when asked if he anticipated having a role on the staff for Woods. “I will say I enjoyed serving – I use that word serving – as a vice-captain with him a number of times. I think he brought a lot to the team room and a lot of knowledge and a lot of experience.”

JIM FURYK SHARES THE ONE REASON HE CHOSE TO ACCEPT U.S. RYDER CUP CAPTAINCY

Woods was the presumed favorite to take on the role of U.S. Ryder Cup captain in 2025 at Bethpage Black, but reportedly declined the opportunity. He was also on the list of names who could serve as captain for the 2027 Ryder Cup at Adare Manor in Ireland, but his accident and arrest forced the PGA of America to go a different route, and one that led to Furyk being named captain.

Furyk was the captain of the U.S. side during the 2018 Ryder Cup, one that quickly turned into a nightmare for the Americans, who ultimately lost to Team Europe 17.5-10.5.

Not only will Furyk look to put the 2018 mess in the rearview mirror, but he’ll also be looking to lead the Americans to their first Ryder Cup victory on foreign soil since 1993.

The 2027 Ryder Cup will begin on Sept. 17.
