President Donald Trump kicked off his sporty Sunday by hitting the links with a 15-time golf champion. According to the White House pool report, the president— who is also expected to attend the Super Bowl LIX this weekend—met up with Tiger Woods in West Palm Beach, Florida. The two have a relationship that predates the real estate mogul’s entry into politics. In 2019, Trump awarded Woods the Presidential Medal of Freedom. He also offered the gold legend public condolences earlier this week when his mother, Kutilda Woods, died at 78. “I was just informed that Tiger Woods’ wonderful Mother, Kultida, passed away — She has gone onto greener fairways!” Trump wrote on Tuesday on TruthSocial. “Kultida Woods was an amazing influence on Tiger, and gave him much of his strength and brilliance. Melania and I send our love and prayers to Tiger and his incredible family!” After they were done teeing it up at Trump’s golf course, the president took off to New Orleans, where the football championship is being held this year. Meanwhile, Woods is gearing up for the Genesis Invitational this week in San Diego, which will be his first PGA Tour event.
