President Donald Trump today is slated to bestow the Presidential Medal of Freedom upon golfer Tiger Woods, who has long lent his celebrity glow to the businessman’s global properties. Trump has named a villa after Woods at the Trump National Doral Miami and in 2014 asked the golfer to design a course in Dubais as part of a luxury megaproject.
