President Donald Trump was honored by Team USA’s golf captain Brandt Snedeker on Sunday after his team’s victory.
The United States was able to take home an 11th consecutive win, beating the International Team 17-13 at the Presidents Cup after overturning a three-point deficit. Snedeker gave the president a shout-out, as he had promised to do if Team USA could go all the way.

“It’s really special because I got to meet President Trump today on the first tee,” he said. “As he told me this morning, he brought some juice for us today, and I told him if it’s turned out our way, I was going to give him the credit because he definitely brought the juice. So he deserves a lot of the credit for what’s happened today.”
Trump, who was in attendance at the time, shook the man’s hand.

Love the fact that the President Trump took the time to shake the hand of and with every US Team member, and literally had a conversation with each as well. He is The People’s President!

Trump said the media would claim he got a bad reception at Medinah. He got ‘USA’ chants. Team USA pulled the biggest Sunday comeback in the event’s history. The captain credited him for the win. The haters are 0-for-Sunday!

Naturally, there were some who were less than pleased with the praise:
@rbsnedeker the president gets the credit? You are a clown, put you and Mitch McConnell in the same cohort.

What about the players who hit shots and made putts. I guess they dont matter. What bullshit.

Are you serious? 🤮 As if he had anything to do with it. He’s usually a human jinx.
