President Trump on Sunday joined the American Team at the closing ceremony of the Presidents Cup to celebrate their 11th straight win in the tournament.
Trump, who attended as the tournament’s honorary chairman, spent all day at the course watching them win. His last attendance as honorary chairman was in 2017, where the Americans also notched a win.
After the win, American Captain Brandt Snedeker told reporters he wanted to shout out President Trump for the win. “He told me, ‘I was going to bring some energy for you guys. You guys need it.’ And I told him if we did this, he gets all the credit,” Snedeker said. “So, thank you, President Trump.

“I think, as he told me this morning, he brought some juice for us today, and I told him if this turned out our way, I was going to give him the credit because he definitely brought the juice,” he said. “So, he deserves a lot of the credit for what’s happening today,” he added before shaking Trump’s hand as the crowd continued cheering.
