2 prediction markets price this story:

• Golf / Golfer / Golfing — the market puts it at 99%, with $5k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 26 Oct 2026. The market resolves to Yes if Donald Trump states any form of the word "Golf" between October 19, 2026 at 10:30am ET and October 26, 2026 at 12:00am ET. Otherwise, it resolves to No. Readers often get wrong the exact start time of the window; it begins on October 19, not the date of the linked story.
• Not this weekend (Oct 23-25) — the market puts it at 6%, with $2k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 26 Oct 2026. The market resolves to Yes if Donald Trump does not play golf between October 23 and October 25, 2026. The outcome depends solely on his actual participation in a round of golf during this specific three-day window. Readers often mistake the linked news story about a court order as the deciding factor, but only his physical presence on the course matters.
