Trump Faces Repeated Jeers at the U.S. Tennis Open
Donald Trump Booed at FIFA Club World Cup
President Donald Trump attended the U.S. Open men's final on Sunday, but his presence at another sporting event this week has caused controversy. Trump was a guest of the luxury watch brand Rolex at the FIFA Club World Cup, where he was met with boos from the crowd.
The president's attendance caused significant delays for fans due to stricter security measures. The match, which was initially scheduled to begin at 2 p.m., was pushed nearly an hour.
Trump's booing at the FIFA Club World Cup is an additional example of the disapproval he has faced at sports events. In 2019, he was booed at the World Series and at the U.S. Open men's final. This year, he was also booed at the FIFA Club World Cup, during the national anthem and later in the match.
Attorney General Pam Bondi, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent were among the members of the administration who attended the event with Trump. A smattering of cheers was heard when Trump was shown on the jumbotron saluting from a suite at Arthur Ashe Stadium.
However, not all broadcasters were willing to censor the booing. ABC and ESPN refused to bow to requests to filter dissent and continued to air the jeers and heckling that occurred. The U.S. Tennis Association faced accusations of censorship for reportedly directing broadcasters to refrain from showcasing any disruptions or reactions in response to the president's attendance.
Despite the negative response, Trump's attendance at the FIFA Club World Cup is not surprising. He has a history of attending and being booed at sporting events. His booing at the FIFA Club World Cup is another instance of his being met with disapproval at sports events.
