Trump International in West Palm Beach, Florida, has a plaque on the wall that lists all the men who’ve won the men’s club championship. Was it on the wall at any of his own courses he’d opened? Oh, yes. Or Trump Jupiter, which was a Ritz Carlton course when he bought it? Nope. Was it on the walls at Trump Washington in Virginia, a course that was already up and running when he bought it? Nope. Was Trump’s name on the wall of any clubs he didn’t own? Nope. “I told him that if anyone beats him, he kicks them out. When Trump told Gary Player he’d won 18 championships, Player scoffed. If it’s on a top 10 in the world list, Marucci probably has a locker there. He belongs to nearly every creamy course in the world – Winged Foot, Seminole, Pine Valley, Cypress Point. This is a guy who’s been breaking par for the past 45 years. I have a few, but nowhere near that many.
