President Trump to Attend Ryder Cup in New York in Person
Set to Attend Ryder Cup Opening Day Against Europe
President’s Presence Expected to Stir Up the Event’s Boisterous Atmosphere
Bradley Says, "It Is an Honor to Have the President Watch in Person"
US President Donald Trump will watch the Ryder Cup, a golf competition between the United States and Europe, in person.
The PGA of America, which organizes the Ryder Cup, announced on the 23rd (local time) that President Trump will attend the opening day of the Ryder Cup, held on the 26th at Bethpage Black Course in New York. President Trump's attendance at the Ryder Cup had been widely anticipated. Known for frequently attending sporting events, he recently watched the US Open men's singles final at Arthur Ashe Stadium in New York, following his visit to the Super Bowl, the National Football League (NFL) championship game, in New Orleans.
The PGA of America requested President Trump's attendance at the tournament from the White House nearly a month ago, and on the 22nd, the White House confirmed that he would visit the venue. However, details such as the exact time of his arrival, where he will watch the match, and how long he will stay remain undisclosed for security reasons.

President Trump's attendance is expected to be a variable at the Ryder Cup, an event often notorious for its raucous cheering that sometimes goes too far. The United States, which is eager to avenge its loss to the European team in Rome two years ago, welcomed President Trump's visit to the tournament. Keegan Bradley, captain of the US team, said, "It is an honor. Having a sitting president with us is always incredibly special, but for the president to come and support us in person at a stage like Bethpage Black in New York, representing our country, is almost unbelievably amazing. We are truly grateful to the president for making time for us."
