Trump texts McIlroy – Europe troll US President in reply

Donald Trump was trolling Donald Trump as Europe’s players celebrated a knee-knuckling 15-13 victory over the United States in New York.

“Do you know, Donald Trump?” the players who won the game were sung in response to Rory McIlroy receiving a well-known golf fan’s text message.

Trump, who appeared for a brief time at the Bethpage Black course on Saturday, effectively responded, saying, “Yes, I’m watching. “Congratulations”

Luke Donald, the captain for Europe, told BBC Sports editor Dan Roan, “I’m glad he liked and enjoyed it.”

Rory received a text from the president while we were having a conversation with the team. We read it out and envisioned a little banter [with him] afterward.

He appeared to be in good spirits when he took it.

McIlroy and Trump have played golf together, and he mentioned his ties to the United States last week. He referred to it as “the country of opportunity” and “the world’s best nation.”

On the coach back to their Long Island hotel, the celebrations were in full swing as they were in Rome two years ago.

On social media, footage of Shane Lowry leading the team to sing a well-known chant sung by European fans.

Irishman Lowry, a close friend of McIlroy’s, is yelling “he’s in your head, he’s in your head, Rory, Rory, Rory,” to the tune of the Cranberries song “Zombie.”
