Donald Trump is an avid golf fan, and he cares tremendously about his golf courses, but the one that has (in the past) held a special importance in his life has been the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey.
CNN reports that Trump currently owns 17 golf courses, to be exact, and you can find them pretty much anywhere golf is popular: not only up and down the East Coast United States, from Florida to New York, but also in countries like Scotland, the UAE, and Ireland.
A few of Trump's golf courses have earned stern rebukes from environmental groups due to the damage their construction has caused or could cause to surrounding ecosystems. For example, the Guardian reported in 2018 that the golf resort in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, was guilty of partially destroying a fragile dune system composed of sands and plant life so unique that the area had previously been recognized as a site of special scientific interest by the Scottish Natural Heritage. Over in the United States, ABC says a Trump National Golf Course in Virginia was cited for cutting down trees in a protected area that was vulnerable to flooding, less than a decade after previously getting in trouble for chopping down another 400 trees. The justification? They wanted to make a clearer view for guests.
Keep in mind, Ferry Point is a public course but charges a hefty $175 a round, as opposed to the normal $20 to $50 at other public courses. Recently, Trump's controversial White House stint may have hit the golf course hard, leading to a 12 percent revenue decrease in 2017, reports the Washington Post.
Year after year, according to Forbes, Eric Trump has borrowed his father's Westchester, New York, golf club for the Eric Trump Foundation Golf Invitational: a ritzy charity event where million of dollars are donated to St. Jude's hospital to benefit kids with cancer. As the younger Trump tells it, the greatest advantage to his event is that since it's his father's golf course, he gets to rent it out for free so all the money goes toward helping children with cancer with little upfront cost.
In 2012, Donald Trump purchased the Ritz-Carlton golf course in Jupiter, Florida, according to NBC, and for whatever reason, a group of previous members decided to ship out. Under the former rules of the agreement, these members were permitted to continue playing golf on the course until their replacements were found: like it or not, that's the contract they signed. When Trump caught wind of this, though, he wrote a letter to the members of the club saying that, as the new owner, he wanted them gone ASAP and these former rules no longer applied. According to USA Today, Trump also refused to give the former members their refundable deposits, some of which were as high as $210,000.
According to USA Today, Trump also refused to give the former members their refundable deposits, some of which were as high as $210,000. Predictably enough, the old members weren't happy about being stiffed, so they joined together and filed a class-action lawsuit.
