New footage shows Donald Trump taking a Club World Cup winners' MEDAL as his gatecrashing escalates as it emerges he's keeping the original trophy in the Oval Office
New footage has shown US President Donald Trump receiving a winners' medal from FIFA president Gianni Infantino, before he joins Chelsea for their Club World Cup trophy lift. Trump was spotted among the Chelsea players as they lifted the new trophy, pictured alongside captain Reece James after the Blues had stunned Paris Saint-Germain with a 3-0 win in the final. Cole Palmer was the star of the show within the 90 minutes, with two goals and an assist for Joao Pedro to net the third in a rampant 45 minutes for the Blues. However, the celebrations were somewhat gatecrashed by the US President, who made a surprise appearance for the big moment. Trump was seen being handed a medal by Infantino, with pictures showing him holding onto the award during the ceremony. Yet Trump has now claimed that his involvement in the tournament has not ended with the trophy celebrations on Sunday, as he will now hold onto the real trophy, with Chelsea taking home a replica. Trump was seen still holding onto the prize later on in the victory ceremony on Sunday '[Fifa] is doing fantastically well for [football in America], it's a growing sport, it is a great sport,' President Trump told Dazn. 'They said: "Could you hold this trophy for a little while?". We put it in the Oval Office and then I said: "When are you going to pick up the trophy", and [Infantino] said: "We're never going to pick it up, you can have it forever in the Oval Office". 'And they actually made a new one [for Chelsea] but right now [the original] is in the Oval.' As such, Chelsea - who won the competition and pocketed a hefty prize purse - were given a replica version to take home. Clubs are usually given the legitimate trophy after winning silverware for their celebrations back home and open-top bus parades, with the cup later switched out. Mail Sport has approached FIFA for comment. Viewers of DAZN's coverage were also able to watch an unlikely exchange, as Infantino introduced Trump to Palmer, as the Chelsea and England star walked up to collect his player of the tournament prize. Lip reading expert Jeremy Freeman revealed Trump had words of admiration for Palmer, after watching his stunning performance in the final. ' Chelsea 's biggest fan. I'm a big fan of you. So well done you,' Trump said, according to Freeman. Palmer, who has be known to offer few words in post-match interviews, reportedly replied 'Thank you' before rejoining his team-mates. The 23-year-old's reaction to Trump's decision to remain on stage during Chelsea's trophy presentation, however, has garnered the biggest reaction from fans. The US President had been given the honour of presenting the trophy to Blues captain Reece James, with the expectation that he would then step aside, as it customary. Infantino was seen attempting to usher Trump away from Chelsea players, but the US president remained in place, standing either side of James and Sanchez. Trump's refusal to leave the stage left Chelsea players bewildered with Palmer appearing to say, 'What's he doing?'. Speaking post-match, Palmer admitted 'I knew he was going to be here but I didn't know he was going to be on the stand when we lifted the trophy so I was a bit confused, yeah.' Further light has been shed on Trump's presence in the trophy presentation, with his interactions with Chelsea captain James and goalkeeper Sanchez having been revealed. Palmer had appeared baffled by Trump's continued presence during the trophy presentation Palmer admitted at a press conference that he was 'a bit confused' by the situation While Palmer appeared confused in the background, Freeman revealed James had asked for Trump's permission to lift the trophy. As Palmer said 'No, no, just wait, wait…wait…wait', James was seen turning to the US President to seek his approval. James reportedly said 'I can lift?', with Trump responding 'Oh we can, good!' According to Freeman, Sanchez had been open to Trump remaining on the stage and being part of the celebrations. 'Please, sir,' the goalkeeper said to Trump, according to Freeman, before asking him 'Want us to lift the trophy next to you?' With Trump having signalled his approval, Sanchez was seen motioning for James to lift the trophy and kick-start the celebrations.

'I've hit winning Open putt 1,000 times in my mind'
Justin Rose said that he has hit the winning putt for the Open Championship in his mind "more than 1,000 times" during the early stages of his 44-year-old will tee off at Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland on Thursday for the 153rd edition of The has never won the British major but has twice finished second, in 2018 and more recently last year as Xander Schauffele lifted the Claret Jug at Royal Troon. "The Open is probably the most emotional major for me," Rose told BBC Sport. "As a British player it is one that I'd dearly love to win and is the one I've dreamed about winning the most as a kid, out on the putting greens as a youngster I've holed the putt to win The Open in my mind a thousand times or more." Rose announced himself to the golfing world in 1998 as a 17-year-old amateur when he chipped in for a birdie on the last hole to finish tied for fourth at The Open. "Birkdale 1998 for me is probably another reason why it has a special place in my heart, there's a lot of great reasons for me to keep working hard and try to win it," he biggest career wins include the US Open Championship in 2013 and a gold medal at the 2016 Olympic Games. He came close to a second major victory earlier this year when he came from seven strokes behind on the final day of the Masters to force a play-off against eventual champion Rory McIlroy. Rose also comes into this year's Open after an impressive final day at the Scottish Open last set the clubhouse lead and best round of the day of 63 on Sunday to propel himself to a sixth-placed finish. Rose 'confident' of Ryder Cup captain's pick Rose currently sits just outside the automatic top six qualification places for this year's European Ryder Cup team. The already qualified Rory McIlroy leads the way, also joined in the top six by Tommy Fleetwood, Tyrrell Hatton, Robert MacIntyre, Shane Lowry and Sepp Straka. North Hants Golf Club's Rose sits ninth in the rankings, just below Rasmus Hojgaard and Ludvig Aberg on 886.84 points. He says he is confident of joining captain Luke Donald and the team over in New York this September. "The Open Championship is definitely front and centre right now," Rose said."But pretty much straight after that it is about trending towards the Ryder Cup, it's one that we've been talking about for four to five years now given the magnitude of it."I'm definitely confident of having the opportunity to play but I'd like to show Luke some form over the next few months, this is the most important time to show the captain that you're playing well."Making the team is not the goal. It's about contributing to the team, it's about getting my game as sharp as I can and playing my best golf come September."Back in 2023 Rose was part of the squad that beat Team USA as the Europeans dramatically regained the trophy in year's competition will take place at Bethpage Black Golf Course in Farmingdale, New York. "Competing in New York itself is going to be huge," Rose added."It'll be a massive challenge for team Europe and it's one the team is relishing because we're going to be facing a really hostile environment that will challenge us."If we can stick together as a team then we will have a great opportunity."

Controversial trad wife Nara Smith slammed as ‘negligent' for promoting ‘dangerous' drink while pregnant
NARA Smith has arguably become one of the most famous trad wives on social media. The 23-year-old mum has gone viral for sharing her home-made recipes, from chewing gum to controversially making her own SPF. 3 And now the controversial mum has been slammed as negligent in a recent recipe video. Taking to social media, Nara, who is currently pregnant with her fourth child, shared her recipe for cookies. All was going well as she showed the delicious soft-baked cookies until she revealed what she was drinking with them. Most people like to have a glass of milk with their cookies, and Nara did just that, but this time, with raw milk. "These hit the spot with some cold raw milk," the mum said as she finished her video, sparking a horrified response from concerned viewers. The drink has been illegal to buy in the UK for forty years due to dangerous bacteria found in raw dairy products. One wrote: "Raw milk while pregnant is actually unhinged." "Raw milk while pregnant is crazy... why is pasteurisation a problem?" added a third. Meanwhile, a fourth said: "Raw milk for why?? You are taking an enormous risk for no reason." Viral trad wife Nara Smith pregnant with 4th child aged 23 - as trolls say 'that's insane, as I'm sure the name will be' The U.S. Food and Drug Administratio said pregnant women run a serious risk of becoming ill drinking raw milk. Listeria, a germ often found in raw milk can cause miscarriage, or illness, or death of the newborn baby. "If you are pregnant, drinking raw milk - or eating foods made from raw milk - can harm your baby even if you don't feel sick," they warned. Nara has gained a massive following on social media due to her 'trad wife' lifestyle. She's often seen in the kitchen baking extravagant meals from scratch while wearing designer dresses worth thousands of pounds. She shares Rumble, four, Slim Easy, three, and Whimsy Lou, one, with Lucky, 27 - whom she tied the knot with in 2020 What is raw milk and the dangers? Most milk goes through pasteurisation before it is consumed. This is where it is cooked to below boiling point to kill off bacteria and micro-organisms. However, raw milk is not pasteurised and can be harmful. As more people drank milk in the 20th Century an increase in milkborne diseases ripped through humans. Tuberculosis, typhoid, scarlet fever and diphtheria were just a few of the serious illnesses spread through raw milk. These diseases were virtually eliminated in humans with the implementation of pasteurisation, in combination with improved management practices on dairy farms. Raw milk can carry dangerous bacteria such as salmonella, e-coli, listeria and campylobacter. A 2019 Public Health England review finds raw milk responsible for 26 outbreaks of intestinal infectious disease in England and Wales between 1992 and 2017. These involved 343 people and resulted in 41 hospitalisations. There were no outbreaks between 2003 and 2013, but seven occured between 2014 and 2017. It's been illegal to sell unpasteurised dairy milk in supermarkets or high street shops in England, Wales and Northern Ireland since 1985 and it's outlawed in Scotland.
