EPADonald Trump will spend the second full day of his visit to Scotland back on the golf course before meeting the EU Commission president for trade talks.
The US president will again play a round at Turnberry in South Ayrshire with guests and family, including his son Eric.
It is believed his only major business meeting will be with Ursula von der Leyen, who has said they will discuss “transatlantic trade relations, and how we can keep them strong”.
Trump is due to meet UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and Scotland’s First Minister John Swinney on Monday, as well as opening a second 18-hole course at his estate in Aberdeenshire.
The president arrived in Scotland on Friday evening, with Air Force One touching down at Glasgow Prestwick Airport before his entourage travelled to nearby Turnberry.
He has said he “it’s great to be in Scotland” and has praised Starmer and Swinney ahead of meeting them.
A major security operation was ramped up at Turnberry before Trump played 18 holes on Saturday.
He waved to photographers and the assembled media as his day passed without incident.
Several roads remain closed in the area while police and military personnel have been carrying out checks around the resort.
