Terribly.

I let him know he has a beeline to the hole. It often goes the same way....not towards the hole.

The way he hit the shot would indicate that he is not a good golfer. It's a shot that anyone who is even a half decent golfer would never duff so badly. No one with any knowledge of golf would look at his shot and think that he plays on a regular basis if they did not know any better.

200 yards down the fairway, and 100 yards 90° to the right.

Of course, I only claim a 12 handicap. When I lose a dozen balls during a round, I quit.

Trump Somehow Wins His Club’s Golf Championship Despite Missing First Day

Proving his own humble admission that he is “always the best at sports,” Donald J. Trump seized the gold medal at his own Florida club’s senior golf championship on Sunday.

Even more incredibly, the former president was able to claim victory despite completely skipping the tourney’s first day, having been in North Carolina for Lynette “Diamond” Hardaway’s memorial service.

Calling the win “a great honor” in a Truth Social post, Trump crowed, “Competed against many fine golfers, and was hitting the ball long and straight… You need strength and stamina to WIN, & I have strength & stamina - most others don’t. You also need strength & stamina to GOVERN!”

It was the perfect shot. No one in the history of the world ever hit a more perfect shot.

He cheats and breaks rules and norms every chance he gets - and if all else fails he just whacking at things like a colicky ape.

It's totally believable that he would make up his golfing results.

He has never in his life come close to breaking 90.
It's just not possible with that weird hook in his back swing.

But a) I'm not particularly good, b) I always admit that I'm not particularly good, and c) I have golfed in my lifetime probably fewer times than Shitbag Ballsack golfed while he was pretending he was capable of being the president of a major country.

So nothing there surprises me. I'll bet most of his balls are at the bottom of a pond somewhere.

Meanwhile they worship Shankboy Trump the serial golf cheat.
