President Donald Trump arrived at Farmingdale Airport just before 11:15 a.m., traveling with his granddaughter, Kai Trump, herself an avid golfer.

Stopping to talk briefly to pool reporters at the airport, Trump was asked if he was looking forward to attending the Ryder Cup and whether he would give a pep talk to Team USA.

He quipped that he was there to be "Knute Rockne," invoking the legendary Notre Dame football coach.
