Now is your chance to own a piece of U.S. presidential history. Donald J. Trump’s TaylorMade RAC TP forged irons are on the bidding block at RR Auctions and are valued at an estimated $30,000. The custom set was gifted to former Trump National Bedminster caddie master Andrew Lombardo.
Lombardo, who caddied for the now 45th president over 100 times during his tenure, asked for the clubs over 10 years ago and has held on to them ever since. The 3-iron through pitching wedge set was apparently a gift to Trump from former TaylorMade CEO Mark King and features a personal “D. Trump” engraving on each clubhead.
According to Lombardo, Trump exclusively used these irons for a two and a half month period while playing with and against a variety of celebrities, powerful businesspeople, and golf professionals at Bedminster.
