Donald Trump has played an unusual round of golf surrounded by rings of police and protesters at one of his Scottish courses.

The human lines of police officers out-numbered the players and caddies at Turnberry.

The president is making what has been described as a “private visit” to Scotland, after meetings with Prime Minister Theresa May and the Queen on Friday.
