Former President Donald Trump was spotted hanging out with various golf superstars on Sunday who were attending an event at the Trump National Doral Miami hotel.

The presumptive Republican presidential nominee made his appearance just before the final round of the day. Among the golfing icons in attendance were Bubba Watson, Anthony Kim, and Bryson DeChambeau; LIV Golf CEO Greg Norman was also present for the event.

Trump was joined by his son, Eric Trump, during his visit to the golf course.

The former president is no stranger to the world of LIV Golf, which hosted three of its 14 tournaments at Trump courses in 2023 in Florida, New Jersey, and Virginia. Trump has also seemingly defended LIV Golf on social media despite controversy generated over the professional golfing tour.

The controversy related to LIV Golf stems from its funding from Saudi Arabia, which has a Public Investment Fund with over $2 billion invested in the sport. Saudi Arabia has been greatly criticized due to its possible connections to the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks as well as the murder of Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

Trump’s visit to Sunday’s LIV Golf event comes a day after he raised over $50 million for his campaign, which was almost double what President Joe Biden’s campaign collected last week. The former president also brought in almost $66 million last month, compared to Biden’s $90 million.
