President Donald Trump confirmed on Twitter Friday that he will attend the U.S. Women's Open at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey, once he returns from his trip to France.

The United States Golf Association previously said it mapped out a security plan in anticipation of Trump's visit, per USA Today's A.J. Perez.

According to the Palm Beach Post's Kristina Webb, the visit to the Bedminster links will be his fourth since he was inaugurated in January and first since he attended the G20 Summit in Hamburg, Germany.

Last October, Democratic senators Richard Blumenthal (Conn.), Bob Casey (Penn.) and Edward Markey (Mass.) petitioned the USGA to move the major from Trump National because they alleged Trump had engaged in a "pattern of degrading and dehumanizing women," per NJ.com's Brent Johnson.
