President Donald Trump didn’t receive all applause, nor did he receive all boos during his appearance at the U.S. Open on Sunday afternoon.
President Donald Trump drew a mix of cheers and boos from the crowd at Arthur Ashe Stadium in New York ahead of the U.S. Open men’s singles final on Sunday afternoon.
Trump showed up less than an hour before the match between Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz began. He stepped onto the balcony of the Rolex corporate suite he was situated in and waved the crowd. Tennis fans cheered for the president and Trump mouthed, „Thank you.“
The president saluted as the national anthem played in the stadium. He received a mix of cheers and boos from the crowd as the cameras panned toward him. He reportedly received boos again in the middle of the match.
Trump critics were quick to pile on the president, only mentioning the boos from the crowd. Bounces reporter Ben Rothenberg noted that the president received some claps as well.
