Donald Trump just made the Masters all about him

[Demovictory9]

CNN)Patrick Reed's Masters victory on Sunday spawned 1,000 headlines: a young American's first major championship, Reed's stormy past, his strained relationship with his parents, the failure of Rory McIlroy to make a serious run at Reed on Sunday.

Or, if you are the President of the United States, to tout your golf course.
Yes, you read that right.

Here's Trump's "congratulatory" tweet for Reed on Sunday night:

"Congratulations to Patrick Reed on his great and courageous MASTERS win! When Patrick had his amazing win at Doral 5 years ago, people saw his great talent, and a bright future ahead. Now he is the Masters Champion!"

Who owns Doral, you ask? That's the "Trump National Doral" -- if we're being formal.

Trump didn't mention the four other tournaments Reed had won before winning Sunday at Augusta. Just the one that was held on a golf course -- and resort -- that carried the "Trump" name.

1. THE BEST PEOPLE! Yeah latch on to this guy Trump

I know it's the NY Post. All day stuff has been coming out about this guy.

This article doesn't mention that has nothing to do with his parents (as usual his dad was a big force in his golfing life) who haven't been allowed to see their grandkids. They live 3 miles from Augusta but had to watch it on TV. Oh and Reed saw his father at the 2014 US Open and had him removed from the event.

In the book “Slaying the Tiger: A Year Inside the Ropes on the New PGA Tour,” by Shane Ryan, Reed’s alleged travails at Georgia are detailed.

It all began when he was a freshman, at a qualifying round before a tournament. He hit a ball deep into the rough; there was another ball closer to the fairway. According to sources Ryan spoke to, Reed prepared to hit the other ball when a few teammates confronted him. Reed pleaded ignorance, but they didn’t buy it. Reed has been asked about it since and has strongly denied cheating, yet Jason Payne, an assistant golf coach at Georgia while Reed was there, confirmed the teammates’ story.

There were also allegations of theft, with items and $400 cash going missing from the locker room. Teammates blamed Reed, who denied it.

On the Tour, Reed’s reputation for abrasiveness and cockiness continued. During the 2014 Ryder Cup, he put his finger to his mouth and shushed the European crowd. In November 2014, he was heard uttering a gay slur after a missing a putt in the WGC-HSBC Champions in China, for which he apologized.
