Donald Trump flies into Scotland later to visit two golf resorts which he owns in the country where his mother was born, BBC reported.

He will travel to Turnberry in South Ayrshire, a world-class venue he bought in 2014, and to Menie in Aberdeenshire to open a new 18-hole course. 

The White House says Trump will also meet Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer to discuss trade while he is in the UK.

The trip is exceptional as US presidents rarely promote their personal interests so publicly while in office, according to BBC.
