Trump wins golf championship a day after ordering strikes on Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen

It was a big day on the green for President Donald Trump.

Trump announced in a Truth Social post on Sunday that he won a golf tournament at his club in Palm Beach County, Florida – noting that it would likely be his "last."

"I just won the Golf Club Championship, probably my last, at Trump International Golf Club, in Palm Beach County, Florida. Such a great honor! The Awards dinner is tonight, at the Club," the post read.

"I want to thank the wonderful Golf Staff, and all of the many fantastic golfers, that participated in the event. Such fun!"

Trump’s big day on the golf course came a day after the White House shared photos of the president dressed in golf attire as he watched strikes on Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen.

"President Trump is taking action against the Houthis to defend US shipping assets and deter terrorist threats," the White House wrote on X. "For too long American economic & national threats have been under assault by the Houthis. Not under this presidency."

According to the U.S. Central Command, it "initiated a series of operations consisting of precision strikes against Iran-backed Houthi targets across Yemen to defend American interests, deter enemies, and restore freedom of navigation."

Why did he say that? Why might this be his last time winning a golf championship at that Trump course?

He’s almost 80. Probably just not up for anymore tournaments

What does one thing have to do with the other on the same article?

He’s a happy fella and I’m happy for him. Way to go President Trump!

He may have felt lucky in this competition and viewed his win as a one-off, given his age and the rising talent of younger golfers. Alternatively, time constraints related to the presidency could be a factor.

Trump is not tired of winning. Biden was tired and he was losing.

They are trying to portray 47 as some aloof killer. My girlfriend, soon to be ex, compared Trump to Hitler last night. She’s lived in Seattle all her life and reads the Seattle Times every day. I’ve read that thing and it is a mess.

She loaned me money to buy my boat. Paid her off in full last night.

I’m waiting for a gif of him teeing off numerous times and the balls taking out Houthis.

Trump once knocked down Hillary as she was entering a plane. I’ve seen a video of it.

Earlier, he litterally stepped off the golf course to observe strikes in real time.

Note that Pres. Trump was not photo shopped into the video at the back of the room barely peeking around the other people.
