Where are Donald Trump's golf courses? President hosts PM at Scottish location

President Donald Trump is known to spend a lot of time golfing, so it’s not a surprise that a large part of his business empire centres around golf.

Indeed, while on an official visit to Scotland, the president has been seen on various golf courses, touring the country that is the home of golf.

President Trump also hosted Prime Minister Keir Starmer at his Aberdeenshire golf course, with plans to open a second golf course on the resort at the end of his week-long visit.

While the focus is on the Scottish location this week, here’s a round-up of every Trump Golf around the world – including two new ones set to open soon.

Aberdeen, Scotland

A second course is set to be added to the Aberdeen location later this week. (Trump Golf)

Ranked as the greatest modern championship links in Great Britain and Ireland, the 7,428-yard Trump International Scotland resort was designed by Martin Hawtree.

The natural landscape offers deep valleys and views of the North Sea coastline for the course.

Doonbeg, Ireland

Opened in 2002, the course was bought by Trump International in February 2014.

Miami, Florida

Los Angeles, California

Its clubhouse is also known for hosting parties and events, as well as gold-related celebrations.

Turnberry, Scotland

The second Scottish location on this list leans into the rugged coastline. (Turnberry, Scotland)

Ranked as one of the top 20 courses in the world, the Ailsa at Trump Turnberry has also played host to four Open Championships.

Being an iconic course, it’s instantly recognisable thanks to its famous lighthouse.

Trump International Golf Club, Dubai

Charlotte, North Carolina

Trump National Charlotte leans into the watery environment. (Trump National Charlotte)

Bringing Trump National’s private membership to North Carolina, the course follows Lake Norman for most of its length.

Nearly two-thirds of the holes play in view of or next to the lake – offering both a nice view and a treacherous obstacle.

Colts Neck, New Jersey

Trump National Colts Neck is favoured for both its clubhouse and its course. (Trump National Colts Neck)

Designed by Jerry Pate, Trump National Colts Neck is located in coastal New Jersey.

The course’s USP is the special “19th hole,” an extra par-3 with an island green directly in front of the clubhouse, as pictured above.

Hudson Valley, New York

Trump National Hudson Valley is another example of Trump's many US locations. (Trump National Hudson Valley)

Located in Hudson Valley, another private club from Trump National offers nearly 7,700 yards of golfing against the backdrop of the Stormville Mountains.

The final four closing holes are well-known, winding between one another amongst lakes.

Jupiter, Florida

Another one for private members only. (Trump National Jupiter)

Trump National Jupiter is also reserved for private members in Florida, although it has definite Scottish influence in its design.

There are revetted bunkers and run-ups into many greens across the 7,531-yard course.

Palm Beach, Florida

Trump has enjoyed plenty of locations in Florida. (Trump International Golf Club, West Palm Beach)

Opening in 1999, Trump International Golf Club, West Palm Beach is the first course developed by the Trump Organization.

It’s home to the Top 100-ranked Championship 18, as one of its two courses featuring 27 holes.

Philadelphia, New Jersey

It's all about the views at Trump National Philadelphia, perched on the state's highest southern point. (Trump National Philadelphia)

Perched atop southern New Jersey’s highest point, Trump National’s private club has another Tom Fazio design.

There are six sets of tees to keep a high turnover of private member golfers on track.

Washington, D.C.

A favourite of the president's when he's in the White House (Trump National Washington DC)
