If you can't read the story at the posted link, this one works: https://inews.co.uk/sport/golf/golf-mad-trump-cancelled-augusta-3638604?srsltid=AfmBOorY0pdVm8T5PEHj8XwKbWODezVhVlnUEy2E7w__kEl33GE8h-Ga

I can think of a couple reasons he's not a member.

Reason 1: you don't join Augusta National, they join you. Membership is through recommendation and member vote. Since very few people like Donald Trump he'd never get the support.

Reason 2: he is in the golf business himself. If he were to join the club, he'd only remain in it long enough to have his guests memorize the menu and the layout of the facilities so he could open a copy of it.
