Trump’s 2025 Golf Club Visits Reach 88

News Summary

In 2025, former President Donald Trump has made significant waves in the golfing world, visiting golf clubs 88 times in just the first few months of the year. His golfing adventures, documented by the Trump Golf Tracker, reveal a busy schedule that has already surpassed his first year in office. The cost to taxpayers from these excursions is estimated at around $110.6 million. Trump’s visits include his own luxurious golf properties, and he aims to outdo previous presidents like Barack Obama in golf outings. With the golfing season still rolling, it remains to be seen how many more clubs he will visit.

Trump’s Golfing Adventures: 88 Club Visits Already in 2025!

As the new year marches on, former President Donald Trump has already made quite the splash on the golf scene, racking up a staggering 88 visits to various golf clubs in 2025 alone. Since stepping back into office in January, these excursions have become a regular part of his schedule, and they could be costing taxpayers a pretty penny!

Golf Tracker Chronicles Trump’s Club Visits

The Trump Golf Tracker has been busy monitoring these trips, tallying visits based on Trump’s public calendar and his motorcade arriving at his properties. But here’s the catch: while we know he’s been there, it’s a bit unclear just how many actual rounds of golf he’s played. Nonetheless, this year, August turned out to be his busiest month, with a commendable 10 visits to the links.

In addition to his summer golfing, Trump dedicated nine days each to his green endeavors in both March and November, not to mention his frequent trips to his West Palm Beach golf club, which saw nine visits in December alone. All these green visits have already outstripped Trump’s first-year golf trips from his first term, where he was on the course a total of 87 times in 2017.

A Closer Look at the Numbers

Diving into the specifics, during his first term, golf became a regular escape for Trump, peaking at 84 times in 2019 and falling to 47 times in 2020 due to the pandemic. Fast forward to 2025, and he’s already beaten that tally from his earlier days in office. It’s also estimated that the cost of Trump’s golfing lifestyle this year could reach a whopping $110,600,000 for taxpayers, a figure derived from a government report cataloging expenses from just four golf trips during his first term.

Exclusive Club Visits

Where’s the golfing action happening? All 2025 visits thus far have been to Trump’s own properties, including:

  • Trump International Golf Club West Palm Beach
  • Trump National Doral in Miami
  • Trump National Golf Club Jupiter, also in Florida
  • Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Virginia
  • Bedminster in New Jersey

His first post-election golf getaway to Florida was at the end of January, while a trip to Bedminster followed in March. April saw him heading towards Virginia, and in July, he traveled across the pond to Scotland, showcasing his international golf properties while also hosting a ribbon-cutting ceremony for a brand-new course.

The Ryder Cup and Historical Precedents

Adding to the excitement, Trump didn’t just swing clubs; he also made history by attending the first day of the Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black Course in September. He’s the first sitting president to join the event, though Team Europe ultimately walked away with the win.

Golfing Comparisons: Trump vs. Obama

If this keeps up, Trump could soon surpass his predecessor in total golf outings. Former President Barack Obama played around 333 rounds of golf during his eight years in office. Currently, Trump’s golfing frequency indicates that he could potentially outpace Obama’s golf totals within just four years of his second term, assuming the trends continue.

Biden’s Golfing Habits

Meanwhile, current President Joe Biden, not exactly a golf fanatic, nonetheless made at least 33 visits to his homes during his first year and 31 visits in his second year, which certainly places him in a different league than Trump’s golf escapades.

As 2025 rolls along, it will be fascinating to see just how many more clubs Trump checks off his list and what the overall costs will look like as he spends quality time on the greens. Will he continue racking up those golfing days, or will there be changes ahead? Time will tell!
