‘Claims They Cheated’: Golf World Furiously Refutes Donald Trump’s Latest Achievement

Who comes to mind when we say “hole-in-one” political figure? Is it Donald Trump? Yes, the former Premier of the US is widely associated with golf. Not just in terms of his massive golf course but also for his involvement on the course. There is no doubt that he is mostly in the news for making a big splash in the golf world apart from politics. It’s not the first time that Donald Trump has declared himself a winner. In recent news, he did that in the Senior Club Championship at his own Trump International Golf Senior Club Championship in West Palm Beach, Florida.

Winning by the right means would be the right way to go about it, but Trump has a flair of his own.

According to an article in Golf Weekly, Trump wrote on his social media, “Competed against many fine golfers and was hitting the ball long and straight.”

He further wrote, “The reason that I announce this on fabulous TRUTH is that, in a very real way, it serves as a physical exam, only MUCH tougher. You need strength and stamina to WIN, & I have strength & stamina – most others don’t. You also need strength & stamina to GOVERN!”
