The Royal and Ancient Golf Club (R&A) has resisted pressure to stage the Open golf championship at Trump Turnberry in Ayrshire. The decision comes despite an invitation from UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson to US President Donald Trump for a second state visit. The R&A has stated that the focus of the championship should be on the players and the course itself, and that the current circumstances do not allow for this. Trump has expressed a desire to host a golf major at one of his courses, with the owner of the course inevitably overshadowing the event.
