‘It’s a shame’: LPGA star argues Trump course should host the Open again
LPGA star Jennifer Kupcho expressed her disappointment with the decision to remove the Trump National Golf Club Bedminster from consideration for hosting the U.S. Women’s Open. Kupcho argued that the course is “one of the best in the world” and that excluding it “is a shame.” She also mentioned the economic benefits that the tournament would bring to the area. Kupcho’s comments echo those of other golfers, including Stacy Lewis and Lexi Thompson, who have spoken out in support of the Trump course. The USGA announced in 2022 that it would no longer hold events at Trump-owned properties due to concerns about the former president’s divisive rhetoric.
