Tennis fans werenAt too thrilled about President Donald TrumpAs attendance
at the U.S. Open.

Trump was greeted with boos as he stepped out from the suite of luxury watchmaker Rolex Sunday at the Arthur Ashe stadium in New YorkAs Flushing Meadows.

The presidentAs attendanceuwith his inner circle in towuforced organizers
to delay the highly anticipated menAs finals match between Carlos Alcaraz
and Jannik Sinner.

oAs a result of the security measures in place, and to ensure that fans
have additional time to get to their seats, we have pushed the start time
of todayAs match to 2:30 pm ET,o the U.S. Open said.

The crowd erupted into cheers and jeers as Trump waved at them next to
Rolex CEO Jean-Frederic Dufour. He returned swiftly to his suite out of
view following the reaction.

Trump was joined by son-in-law Jared Kushner and granddaughter Arabella,
Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, special envoy Steve Witkoff, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Attorney General Pam Bondi, and Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt.

The stadium was sparsely populated even as the national anthem began to
play, with hundreds of fans eager to get to their thousand-dollar seats
left waiting in long security lines.

The crowd broke out in an uproar when the Jumbotron panned to Trump
saluting during the anthem.

MAGAworld, however, chose to focus on the positives. Right-wing influencer
Bo Loudon wrote in an X post that otens of thousands just gave President
Trump a POWERFUL, ROARING standing ovationo as he entered the stadium.

A White House X account was also quick to shut down reports of Trump
getting booed.

oAll these Fake News Losers do is lie because their pea-sized brains have
been irreversibly destroyed by TDS,o it said, referring to the made-up
illness dubbed by conservatives as oTrump Derangement Syndrome.o

The United States Tennis Association earlier asked broadcasters to avoid airing coverage of TrumpAs appearance at the tournament.

oWe ask all broadcasters to refrain from showcasing any disruptions or reactions in response to the PresidentAs attendance in any capacity,
including ENG [Electronic News Gathering] coverage,o it said in an email obtained by tennis journalist Ben Rothenberg.

TrumpAs last appearance at the U.S. Open might be to blame for the request. When Trump attended the tournament in 2015 as the frontrunner for the Republican nominee, he was also welcomed by a chorus of boos.

ItAs not just tennis fans, either. Trump also received an icy reception
from the crowd at the FIFA World Cup final in New Jersey in July.
