Professional Golfers Association

Donald Trump's involvement with the PGA (Professional Golfers' Association) began with high hopes but ended in controversy and financial loss. Trump, a golf enthusiast, invested heavily in golf properties, including the Trump National Doral in Miami and the Trump Bedminster in New Jersey, aiming to host prestigious golf tournaments. In 2014, the PGA awarded the 2022 PGA Championship to Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, a significant coup for Trump’s golf business. The tournament promised substantial economic benefits, bringing in spectators, media, and global attention to the venue. Hosting a PGA Championship could generate upwards of $100 million in economic impact for the host site. However, Trump's political career and polarizing presence began to create complications. Following the violent events at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, the PGA of America faced immense pressure to distance itself from Trump. On January 10, 2021, the PGA decided to move the 2022 PGA Championship away from Trump Bedminster, citing the need to avoid controversy and protect the association’s reputation. This decision was a significant financial blow to Trump’s golf enterprise. The loss of the PGA Championship meant not only the direct loss of event-related revenue but also the broader economic impact and prestige that the tournament would have brought. The financial loss from the cancellation was estimated to be in the tens of millions of dollars, considering the investments made in preparing the course and the expected economic boost from hosting the event. Trump's reaction was predictably combative, criticizing the PGA’s decision and threatening legal action. However, the move underscored the broader implications of his political career on his business ventures, illustrating how political controversy can directly affect economic interests. The PGA's decision marked a clear demarcation between the organization and the former president, reflecting the complex interplay between sports, business, and politics. #millionaire #billionaire #money #bankruptcy #million2zero

WHO IS ALTHEA GIBSON ? While Gibson is best known as the first African American to win a Grand Slam title in Tennis, she was also the first Black golfer in the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA). Although there’s not a lot of information about Gibson’s time in the LPGA, we do know she participated in 171 events from 1963 to 1977. Gibson didn’t win any golf tournaments, and compared to her tennis career, her golf career may seem uninspiring. However, she broke barriers at a time when African Americans weren’t welcome on many of the nation’s golf courses. #golfhistory #womenandgolf #africanamericanwomen #golf
