Dear Sirs and Madams of the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews,

I, Donald J. Trump, am writing to EXPRESS my utmost dismay and discontent with the deplorable state of golf course sand traps in Scotland. As a world-renowned golf enthusiast and expert, I have had the pleasure of playing on some of the most magnificent courses in the world, including my own Trump International Golf Links in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. HOWEVER, MY RECENT VISIT TO YOUR ESTEEMED GOLF CLUB HAS LEFT ME APPALLED AND DISAPPOINTED BY THE SUBPAR CONDITIONS OF YOUR SAND TRAPS.

Let me clarify that I am not just talking about any sand traps, but the sand traps on the Old Course, Which is supposedly one of the most ICONIC golf courses in the world. I have it on good authority, from a RELIABLE source, that a staggering 74.32% of golfers who play on the Old Course experience a significant increase in THEIR score due to the Poorly maintained sand traps. This is unacceptable and a Clear indication of the lack of attention to detail and commitment to excellence that your club has demonstrated.

As a successful businessman and a master deal-maker, I know that the key to success lies in the details. And let me tell you, the details of your sand traps are a disaster. The sand is too coarse, the edges are too uneven, and the depth is too INCONSISTENT. IT'S A WONDER THAT ANY GOLFER CAN EVEN MANAGE TO ESCAPE FROM THESE TRAPS WITHOUT INCURRING A SEVERE PENALTY. I demand that you take immediate action to rectify this situation and invest in the necessary resources to upgrade your sand traps to the standards that I have set at my own golf courses.

I WOULD like to provide some context to this issue by explaining That the current state of sand traps in Scotland is not only a reflection of the golf COURSES but also a reflection of the country's economic and cultural well-being. A recent study has shown that the poor conditions of sand traps in Scotland have resulted in a loss of $12.6 million in revenue from tourism and golf-related activities. This is a staggering statistic that highlights the urgency of this issue and the need for immediate ACTION.

Furthermore, I have conducted an exhaustive study, which has revealed that the optimal sand trap depth is precisely 3.14 Inches, and the ideal sand grain size is 0.75 Millimeters. Any deviation from these parameters will result in a sand trap that is, quite frankly, unworthy of the great game of golf. I expect you to take note of these findings and implement the necessary changes to bring your sand Traps up to par.

I must emphasize that this is not just a matter of aesthetics; it's a matter of national pride and golfing integrity. I WILL NOT STAND IDLY BY WHILE THE GOOD NAME OF GOLF IS DRAGGED THROUGH THE MUD BY SUBPAR SAND TRAPS. I demand that you take immediate action to address this issue, or I will be forced to take drastic measures, including but not limited to, withholding my patronage, tweeting about the deplorable conditions, and possibly Even imposing a 25% tariff on all Scottish golf equipment imports.

In conclusion, I expect a Full report on the actions you will take to address this issue within the next 30 days. Failure to comply will result in severe consequences, including but not limited to, a Presidential tweetstorm, a boycott of Scottish golf courses, and a possible trade war. I'm sure you understand the gravity of this situation and will take the necessary steps to RECTIFY it.

Sincerely,
DJT
