Custom $11K ‘Honorary Captain’s’ Golf Cart Waits for Trump at Presidents Cup

U.S. President Donald Trump will be attending the Texas-Tennessee game in Knoxville on Saturday and the Presidents Cup in suburban Chicago on Sunday. As the honorary captain for the golf event, Trump will be using a custom presidential-themed golf cart at Medinah Country Club. Club Car, the tournament's long-time golf cart supplier, has designed a special "honorary captain's cart" for Trump.

The red, white and blue vehicle features the presidential seal on its hood and the number "47" stitched into the front seat. The custom golf cart, built from Club Car's Onward 4 Passenger model, has a suggested retail price of $11,299. Club Car, headquartered in Augusta, Georgia, has provided carts for the Presidents Cup since its inception in 1994. The golf cart is currently stored at Medinah but will be available for Trump's use on Sunday.
