Who’s leading Women’s British Open? Why Donald Trump, of course

TURNBERRY, Scotland – Donald Trump touched down in his signature helicopter just as Lydia Ko played down the 16th hole on a sun-splashed day at Trump Turnberry.

“I was like, 'Man, that’s a really nice helicopter,'” the 18-year-old said with a laugh. “I would love one.”

Few, if any, media were watching Ko at the point. All eyes were transfixed on Trump, the billionaire businessman and Republican presidential candidate who strode out of his chopper in front of the Trump Turnberry Hotel wearing a bright red hat that bore the words “Make America Great Again.” The mostly British press swarmed around to get a word as cameras rolled.
