Champions League winner and football royalty joined by Scotland icon at grand opening of Donald Trump's new golf course
PREMIER LEAGUE icons Andriy Shevchenko and Gianfranco Zola are being joined by local hero Jim Leighton in the full list of VIPs taking part at the grand opening of the new Trump international golf course this morning. As you might expect US President Donald Trump gets things under way at 10.45am - with his four ball including his son Eric - alongside two men you might know best these days from SkySports' golf commentary team, Rich Beem and Paul McGinley.

They're in the first fourball of the day - then it's the turn of two heroes from football , Aberdeen Gothenburg great and Scotland legend Jim Leighton and Liverpool star Robbie Fowler. Then at 11.12am, it's the turn of former Chelsea duo Gianfranco Zola and Andriy Shevchenko. The Ukrainian - who won the Champions League with AC Milan - and the Italian are joined by Scottish golf hero Stephen Gallagher and ambassador Warren Stephens, who is the current US ambassador to the UK . Advertisement Other golf stars taking part in the event include Kiwi Michael Campbell, Finland's Jarmo Sandelin and France 's Jean van de Velde, who memorably lost a three-shot lead on the last at the Open at Canoustie back in 1999, when he ended up in his bare feet in the Barry Burn. The ex-pros and the celebrities were spotted using the practice range this morning with Don't You Want Me by the Human League being played over the Tannoy. A huge saltire fluttered in the wind alongside the Stars and Stripes - and there was a whiff of manure after a wind direction change too. Spanning hundreds of acres of rugged coastal terrain, the brand new, 18-hole links course at Trump Scotland in Aberdeenshire promises an exceptional golfing experience with dramatic views of the North Sea.
