Golf and politics have lived these days in the Trump National Doral, the Miami field owned by the president of the United States where the fifth LIV stop, the revolutionary Saudi League has been played. Trump landed big, literally. On Thursday the presidential helicopter, the Marine One, perched on hole 9 of the tour as if it were a cement track instead of delicate lawn. From there it was mounted in a buggy driven by his son Eric. According to him, it was a “work trip”, and prioritized him to go to Dover’s air base for the tribute to the four American soldiers in some maneuvers in Lithuania.
A succulent interests and businesses moved around the golf course, such as advancing in, to sign peace with the American circuit, the PGA Tour, and gather the golf at once. Trump has gotten to work in a task that lengthens in recent months without the light at the end of the tunnel and that, according to slides, is more complex than sealing peace in Ukraine. The last medical part (unofficial, of course) tells that the knot is in the identity of the new organism that could leave the pact: Liv does not want to stop being LIV, and thus maintain its organization chart and its beach bar, and the PGA does not want to stop being the PGA, that is, the owner of the restaurant. And there are erre that erre.
Meanwhile, the Rueda ball, in Miami and this week at the Augusta Masters, and in the Saudi League they have played these days 12 golfers who will fight for the green jacket since Thursday. Among them, two Spaniards, Jon Rahm and Sergio García. The Castellón, who showed his best game again and stayed at a finger of the victory. His ball sank into the water in the last hole and ended in a great third place with -4, two blows from the Australian Marc Leishman. Garcia counted among his followers at the foot of the grass with Yasir Al-Rumayyan, the governor of the Saudi Sovereign Fund, and left flashes of the good golf that he is showing this year, already winner in Hong Kong in early March.
Worse went to Rahm, with a quadruple bogey In 17 after two water visits. Despite this, he was ninth with +1 and retained his unique permanence in the elite. Since it was released in LIV last season, with bingos in the quotes of Rocester and Chicago and the champion ring and the bonus of 18 million to lead the individual classification, it is always the only one among the 10 best.
