President Donald Trump stopped a pit stop at his turnberry course in Scotland on Saturday during his journey abroad.
Trump landed in Scotland on Friday for a five-day trip and he is scheduled to visit his golf town in Aberdee and meet with British Prime Minister Kier Stormer and the leader of the Scottish government, first minister John Swinney.

“The big Gary player: ‘Turnberry is without a question in the five biggest golf courses I’ve ever played in my 73 years as a professional.” Thanks, Gary! “Trump wrote about truth social.
The course hosted four open championships (1977, 1986, 1994 and 2009), but after the Capitol riots in 2021, Royal and Ancient (R&A) Golf Club announced that the open championship would not return there until we are convinced that any coverage on Turnberry would be about golf, the golf course and the championship. “

Hundreds of protesters gathered on cobbled and wood -lined street in front of the US consulate about 100 miles away in Edinburgh, the capital of Scotland. Speakers told the audience Trump was not welcome and criticized storms for having beaten a recent trade agreement to avoid stiff US tariffs on goods imported from UK

Player who has won two senior open championships on the course pleaded with R&A on the reverse course last year and praised the city.
“It has to come back. Fairness in life. Some may say that Donald Trump did … what about any other president? They all did something wrong. Not just Donald Trump. Each one of them says in the Bible: Forgive us for our transgressions when we access those who violate us,” the player said.

“It’s wrong and it’s cruel and it’s unfair to not have the open go back to Turnberry because it’s the best golf course. That and Carnoustie. Carnoustie and Trump Turnberry are the two best golf courses in Scotland.”
A report earlier this year said PGA Tour will return to Trump Doral next year for the first time since 2016, months before he became president for the first time. Trump bought the turnberry resort for $ 60 million in 2014.
The last professional golf tournament held at Turnberry was 2015 Women’s British Open, won by Inbee Park. It has hosted seven senior open championships, most recently in 2012.
The four open championships were won by Tom Watson, Greg Norman, Nick Price and Stewart Cink.
