Trump is given a hero’s welcome at LIV Golf as he drives golf cart through the crowds to watch Bryson DeChambeau and Co play at his New Jersey course
President Donald Trump made another appearance at a New York-area golf event just under one year on from his showing at the first day of the Ryder Cup.
Trump made the trek up to his golf course in Bedminster, New Jersey for the third round of LIV Golf’s New York event.
The President was seen driving around his course in a golf cart as throngs of fans cheered his arrival.
Trump, along with plenty of security, made their way to the clubhouse at the course. He was closely followed by his daughter, Ivanka Trump.
The President greeted fans around the time that LIV rebel and YouTuber Bryson DeChambeau was teeing off on the 16th hole.
Trump arrived in the area on Friday evening as Air Force One touched down just before 6:00pm ET.

The Presidential motorcade then shepherded him to the course through a nasty thunderstorm that swept across the Northeastern United States.
Trump has been a longtime supporter of the rebel tour that was formerly backed by the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF).
Earlier this year, the PIF announced they would stop financially supporting LIV Golf after the conclusion of the current season.
Earlier this week, LIV announced they had secured funding for the 2027 season, but little further details were revealed.
Over the course of its existence, LIV Golf has frequented golf courses owned by the President’s holding company.
Earlier this year, the tournament was held at Trump National Golf Club in Washington, DC.
LIV has also hosted a Miami event at the Blue Monster course at Trump National Doral in the past.
In the past, Trump has attempted to bring a peaceful conclusion to the civil war between LIV and the PGA Tour.

‘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 April.
‘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.’
