DONALD TRUMP enjoyed the most exclusive seat in sport after being perched between two world-renowned businessmen worth $1.2TRILLION.
The US President-elect watched UFC 309 in New York with Newcastle chairman Yasir Al-Rumayyan and Telsa founder Elon Musk.

The historic moment saw TV cameras capture arguably the world’s richest sports picture ever last night.
Footage showed Trump deep in discussion with the Public Investment Fund boss, while Musk focused on Jon Jones’ triumph over Stipe Miocic.
Al-Rumayyan and Musk control nearly $1.2trillion in assets across several companies, including Space X and oil giant Saudi Aramco.
But with Trump included, the trios combined net worth is around $1.8trillion – the same price as the latest US Congress spending bill.
The 78-year-old, who won his second Presidential term in office and is close pals with UFC CEO Dana White, is worth an estimated $6billion.
Al-Rumayyan, 54, is the governor of Saudi consortium PIF group.
As well as his Newcastle duties, the 54-year-old manages and controls more than $930 billion in PIF assets.
But Al-Rumayyan’s personal net worth is estimated at a mere $28 million by comparison.

The Prem chief also earns an annual salary of $302,000 for his role at Saudi Aramco, ranked as the most valuable company in the world.
UFC 309 – owned by Trump’s friend and supporter White – was held at Madison Square Garden on Saturday.
Jones, 37, created yet more history with an emphatic stoppage victory over Miocic to retain his heavyweight title.
Jones later BOWED and handed his belt to Trump by the octagon after his victory lap.
The famous New York venue isn’t far from Trump’s own business venture, Trump Tower.
Meanwhile Tech tycoon Musk, 53, is believed to have added more than $54 billion to his net worth since Trump won the November 5 election.
Two of Trump’s key cabinet picks, Robert F Kennedy Jr and Tulsi Gabbard could be spotted behind the soon-to-be-president as Scot Paul Craig was defeated by Bo Nickal in the other main card fight.
Vivek Ramaswamy, who will lead Trump’s cost-cutting Department of Government Efficiency with Musk, was also in the crowd.

Ramaswamy is worth $900m and went to law school with new vice-President JD Vance.
The pictures sparked renewed speculation about a potential merger in the world of golf.
The Saudi PIF, which owns LIV Golf, has been trying to establish himself as a significant player in the golfing world.
And of course, the Republican owns his own courses, too. Some of which have hosted LIV Golf events over the years.
And the 2024 US Open winner Bryson DeChambeau was in attendance as Trump gave his acceptance speech earlier this month.
