MAGA PGA Breaking: Trump awarding Medal of Freedom to Annika Sorenstam, Gary Player, Babe Zaharias [View all]

Link to tweet

A WH official says this AM that Trump still plans to award the Medal of Freedom to 3 golfers today during an 11:30a East Room ceremony.

He'll award the medal to Annika Sorenstam, Gary Player, and Babe Zaharias (posthumously), the official said.

It's not open to the press.
