30. Justin Thomas is definitely MAGA as are Scheffler, DeChambeau and Burns for sure

All the Americans are probably Republicans - there are very few Pro Golfers who support Democrats.

I will give Justin Thomas some slight credit though. He may have been egging the crowd on early, but once it got really bad, he was trying to get the crowd to quiet down for Rory to make his shots. Not to much credit though since he helped cause the issue himself.

I'm rooting for Tommy Fleetwood - one of the few pro golfers who has criticized Trump (and he was the most successful golfer on the course over the first 2 days winning all 4 of his matches)
