President Donald Trump took a break from his working weekend at Camp David to praise his golf course in Turnberry, Scotland — which one outlet recently named No. 1 in Great Britain and Ireland for 2020.
“So nice to see this great honor,” he said, noting he hadn’t played golf “in a long time.”
The president made his comment Sunday in response to last week’s tweet from Trump Turnberry’s official account celebrating the Ailsa course’s ranking in Golf World.
Turnberry currently ranks No. 8 on the Golfweek Top 50 Classic Courses in Great Britain & Ireland. But his Trump International Scotland was named Golfweek’s at the top of the Modern Courses in Great Britain & Ireland list.
Trump’s passion for golf has been well-documented. His club in Bedminster, New Jersey, hosted the U.S. Women’s Open in 2017 and is scheduled to be the site of the PGA Championship in 2022.
