PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. – Is Trump Turnberry really off the British Open rota? Not according to Donald Trump.
The billionaire businessman, a leading Republican presidential candidate, was unaware of any issues with the R&A and instead is moving forward with proposed changes to the iconic property in Scotland.
“I haven't been told that at an all, no,” Trump said Friday by phone about Turnberry being taken off the British Open rota, which first was reported by London’s Independent. “We're working together with the R&A on the design. We have redesigned it, and it's almost completed. It will be opened in July and, no, I haven't heard that at all.
