Former US President Donald Trump and his son Eric are set to compete in today’s LIV Golf pro-am. The 76-year-old's course, the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, is hosting the third event of the controversial golf series.
He is set to play alongside Dustin Johnson and Bryson DeChambeau during Thursday's curtain-raiser, before members of the Frog-X Navy SEAL Parachute Team parachute onto the course to start each day’s action. Trump is expected to be at event for its duration, despite families of 9/11 victims promising to protest the tournament over its links to Saudi Arabia.
The 9/11 Justice Group slammed the mega businessman as ‘dishonouring America’ by hosting an event of the LIV Golf Series. The breakaway tour is funded by Saudi Arabia's riches and 15 of the 19 hijackers on 9/11 were Saudi nationals, which has left those in justice and survival groups feeling aggrieved.
