Trump’s Ryder Cup arrival welcomed with Keegan Bradley’s dance

USA Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley isn’t letting his team’s rough morning get him down.

The St. John’s University product welcomed President Trump to the first tee at Bethpage Black by showing off his best “Trump dance” — the shimmy that took America by storm during the 2024 presidential campaign.

Bradley, 39, got a huge cheer from the gallery for showing off his moves.

Trump arrived at the Farmingdale golf club earlier in the afternoon with his golfer granddaughter, Kai Trump.

Spectators were treated to a flyover before the afternoon matches got underway, with the Americans looking to make up ground after starting the day in a 3-1 hole.

Before Trump’s arrival, Bradley said the president could provide a spark his team needed after a tough morning.

“We just had the president fly over in Air Force One, so I got a feeling things are going to turn here,” he said.

Bryson DeChambeau, who opened the Friday morning with a massive first swing, fist-bumped Trump as he started his second match of the day with Ryder Cup rookie Ben Griffin.

“I hope he will inspire us to victory. I think he’ll be a great force for us to get a lot of people on our side,” DeChambeau said of Trump on Thursday, according to Fox News. “I think it will be interesting and exciting to see how the crowd and everybody reacts. It’s going to be an electric environment.”

DeChambeau and his morning teammate, Justin Thomas, fell to Jon Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton, 4&3.

Europe is defending its Ryder Cup title after a 2023 win in Rome.
