Unfazed, the president stood there doing his trademark fist pump to the crowd.
When he reemerged at his seat just before the national anthem, he even interacted with a spectator, which had to be staged because who just approaches the president of the United States so easily like that?

As the videos of his appearance make their rounds on the internet, people share their frustrations with the president’s appearance, which many say disrupted the entire experience.
The New York Times reported that Trump’s presence at the US Open heightened security and caused delays for guests, and the final.
One person pointed out that the final was delayed by 45 minutes and had people “wait like cattle” outside the court.

Aside from being upset over the delays, the internet is having a field day over Trump being booed at the US Open. “Love to see it!” one person wrote.
Other people are praising folks for uploading cellphone videos of what went down.
And, if anybody tries to challenge the notion that the president was, in fact, booed, social media wants all the smoke.
