Watch: MS Dhoni playing golf with Donald Trump
Former US President Donald Trump played golf with Indian cricket legend Mahendra Singh Dhoni at the 2023 US Open. Dhoni, known for his calm demeanor, was a guest at the quarterfinal match between Carlos Alcaraz and Alexander Zverev.
This is not Trump’s first time expressing interest in Indian cricket. During a 2020 visit to India, Trump said India had some of the “world’s greatest cricket players”. He named Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli, showing his familiarity with the sport and its stars.
The encounter has sparked a wave of internet memes, humorously linking Dhoni’s meeting with Trump to Trump’s performance in seven key swing states.
