Former Indian cricket captain MS Dhoni was the guest of honor of none other than former United States President Donald Trump, indulging in a leisurely round of golf at the esteemed Trump National Golf Club Bedminster. The rendezvous followed Dhoni’s attendance at the riveting US Open men’s singles quarterfinal clash between Carlos Alcaraz and Alexander Zverev.
The day’s festivities were immortalized by Hitesh Sanghvi, a prominent Dubai-based entrepreneur and companion to Dhoni, who took to Instagram to share his gratitude: “Golf with @mahi7781, @realdonaldtrump and @rajiv.knack…….thank you mr president for hosting us 🙏🙏🙏.”
The social media buzz was further ignited by Sanghvi’s Instagram stories, featuring captivating footage of Dhoni and Trump engaged in a spirited game of golf.
This esteemed gathering wasn’t an isolated occurrence, as the trio of Dhoni, Sanghvi, and their mutual friend had been spotted at the US Open on the previous day, ensuring that their presence graced both the tennis and golf spectacles.
Dhoni, whose recent journey included a successful left knee surgery in Mumbai, appears to be on a trajectory aimed at returning to the cricketing arena, perhaps even for the forthcoming 17th edition of the Indian Premier League.
In addition to his cricketing prowess, Dhoni’s hobnobbing with dignitaries such as Donald Trump demonstrates that his allure extends well beyond the boundaries of the cricket field, marking him as a global sporting icon.
