United States President Donald Trump made headlines during the final round of LIV Golf New York on Sunday.<\/p>\n

The tournament was played at the Trump National Golf Club Bedminster, less than an hour\u2019s drive from New York City.<\/p>\n

Trump has supported LIV Golf since its inception in 2021, with the league staging at least one event each season at a course he owns.<\/p>\n

The president attended the latest tournament with nine-time major champion Gary Player<\/a> and former LIV Golf chief Yasir Al-Rumayyan.<\/p>\n

Donald Trump<\/a> attended the final round of LIV Golf<\/a> New York on Sunday, as Joaquin Niemann (-16) won the individual event.<\/p>\n

As it was the final event of the 2026 season, Jon Rahm walked away with the season-long Individual Title<\/a> despite finishing outside the top 40 in New York.<\/p>\n

However, many golf fans were more intrigued by Trump\u2019s appearance alongside Gary Player and Yasir Al-Rumayyan in a now-deleted video shared by Flushing It<\/a>.<\/p>\n

However, Al-Rumayyan\u2019s visit was particularly noteworthy, as he recently stepped down as LIV Golf chairman and withdrew all financial backing from the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund.<\/p>\n

LIV Golf has been scrambling to find another lead investor<\/a> for the 2027 season, with many expecting the league to fold over the winter.<\/p>\n

CEO Scott O\u2019Neil announced last week that the league has a plan in place, but no one will be convinced until the news is confirmed.<\/p>\n
