Trump Attends Presidents Cup; Dueling Protests Held Outside Medinah Country Club

The U.S. rallied from a three-point deficit and won nine of 12 singles matches, with Brandt Snedeker crediting Trump’s presence for added energy.

  • On Sunday, September 27, 2026, President Donald Trump attended the final round of the Presidents Cup at Medinah Country Club near Chicago, serving as honorary chairman and greeting players before singles matches began.
  • Trump's visit prompted heightened security, including TSA-style screening and restricted zones at Medinah, while demonstrators and supporters gathered outside the venue to voice competing views.
  • During brief opening remarks, Trump faced an outburst from an attendee; some commentators interpreted the shouted obscenity as a 'pedophile' insult amid ongoing controversy over the administration's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files.
  • Team USA rallied from a Sunday deficit to secure a 17-13 victory, with U.S. captain Brandt Snedeker crediting Trump for motivation, saying, "I told him if we did this, he gets all the credit."
  • This victory marks the Americans' 11th consecutive Presidents Cup win, maintaining dominance dating to 1998, with the biennial event returning to Kingston Heath in Melbourne in 2028.
