McIlroy says Trump’s Irish Open visit will bring tight security and a different feel‎

Rory McIlroy says the expected visit of President Donald Trump this week at the Irish Open poses logistical challenges, and that the atmosphere will be different. A White House official said last month that Trump planned to attend the tournament, which is hosted for the first time at his golf course in Doonbeg in County Clare on the country’s Atlantic coast. “It’s going to be different, but the one thing I’d say is his golf resorts have hosted PGA Tour events, European Tour events, LIV events,” McIlroy told BBC Sport.
