Grant Forrest congratulated by Donald Trump after winning Nexo Championship

Grant Forrest eased to victory on home soil for the second time in his career with a four-shot success at the Nexo Championship – and then received a video call from United States president Donald Trump.

Forrest’s victory was at Trump International Golf Links in Aberdeen and, shortly after collecting his trophy, he was being congratulated by the owner and 47th president of the USA over FaceTime.

“I watched it… he’s some player. I look forward to playing with him – in fact I will play with him tomorrow if he could get on a plane,” Trump said in the call, shared on X by the DP World Tour.
