Ryder Cup organizers have asked golf fanatic Donald Trump<\/a> to postpone his visit to the opening match of the tournament after his chaotic appearance at the U.S. Open finals.<\/p>\n

Trump<\/a> attended the men\u2019s singles final between Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner at Arthur Ashe Stadium last Sunday, resulting in massive lines that delayed the match by nearly 50 minutes.<\/a><\/p>\n

Airport-style scanners were installed outside the stadium, and fans were required to empty their pockets and submit to body scans before entering the venue, leading to hundreds of empty seats during the national anthem, during which the president was loudly booed.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cIt is an absolute s–t show,\u201d a source told Page Six<\/a> about the delays. \u201cCars can\u2019t get into parking lots, and people are walking miles. Even celebs are having to wait like normies.\u201d<\/p>\n

Around 50,000 people are expected to attend the Ryder Cup each day, almost twice the attendance of the U.S. Open, and organizers have no scope to change the start times.<\/p>\n

As such, organizers have implored Trump to skip the opening tees and attend later in the day, preferably after lunch or midafternoon, to quell security concerns and allow fans to catch the opening moments of the tournament. <\/p>\n

It is not known if the president will comply with their request<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Luke Donald, captain of Team Europe, has admitted his team will need to prepare for the chaos caused by Trump\u2019s visit after his appearance at the U.S. Open threatened to overshadow the event.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were told that he\u2019s coming. We don\u2019t know the details yet, and I think the tours are talking with the PGA of America to get more information. I guess he will want to be on the first tee,\u201d Donald said.<\/p>\n

\u201cAgain, we understand that he\u2019s coming, and both teams will be ready for that. There were some delays at the tennis, and I think we\u2019re probably all aware of that, but hopefully they have learnt from that.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a big process, obviously, to get a president to come to an event. There\u2019s a lot of security and everything. It takes some work, and the PGA of America\u2019s job is to make sure it\u2019s seamless. I think the crowd is probably going to be loud no matter what.\u201d<\/p>\n

A PGA spokesperson said, \u201cWhile President Trump has indicated interest in attending the 2025 Ryder Cup at Bethpage, specific details have not been confirmed. As we get closer to Ryder Cup week, we will communicate any relevant updates that may impact the Ryder Cup experience.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u201cOur priority remains delivering a seamless, secure, and first-class event for all our guests.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the United States Tennis Association demanded<\/a> in a directive before the U.S. Open final that \u201call broadcasters refrain from showing disruptions or reactions in response to the president\u2019s attendance in any capacity.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ryder Cup organizers have asked golf fanatic Donald Trump to postpone his visit to the opening match of…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":130125,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[4954,5904,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-130124","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-golf","tag-donald-j-trump","tag-golf","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/130124","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=130124"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/130124\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/130125"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=130124"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=130124"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=130124"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
