Gold Donald Trump statue installed at Doral ahead of PGA Tour's return to president's golf course
A 15-foot gold statue of President Donald Trump, depicting him raising his fist after the 2024 assassination attempt, has been installed at Trump National Doral ahead of the PGA Tour's Cadillac Championship. The statue, commissioned by a cryptocurrency group called $PATRIOT, was created by Ohio sculptor Alan Cottrill and held in hiding due to a payment and copyright dispute. After resolving the legal issues, the statue was transported from Ohio to Florida and placed overlooking the golf courses. Its prominent placement coincides with the PGA Tour's return to the property and may also greet world leaders during the upcoming G-20 Summit in December.
