Round with President Trump could be 'omen' for Jim Herman at Wyndham

GREENSBORO, N.C. – Jim Herman shot his career low round Saturday at the Wyndham Championship, and he might have President Donald Trump to thank for it.

Before establishing himself on the PGA Tour, Herman worked in the pro shop at Trump Bedminster Golf Club in New Jersey and played regularly with Trump. The two have maintained their relationship since Trump took up residency in the Oval Office, and they shared friendly rounds in the weeks preceding each of Herman’s two prior wins at the 2016 Houston Open and 2019 Barbasol Championship. Their most recent round together came just three weeks ago at Trump’s Bedminster property.
