Trumps putting under scrutiny as latest club | Golf News

This past weekend, Trump allegedly claimed victory in both the club and senior championships at his Bedminster, New Jersey golf facility, posting a 70 to end two-under par.

However, given his purported observe file of rule-bending on the course, some observers questioned the legitimacy of the commanding win. “The Winning Shot in the Bedminster Club Championship!” Trump posted on Truth Social with footage of his closing putt.

“Thank you very much to all of those who participated. I won with a score of 70, and am so honored in that, unlike the rest of the field, I’m given very little time to practice, because I’m focused on many other things. It’s called TALENT, and I have it, and they don’t!” It comes as Trump made a “ravaging” declare about males in girls’s sport.

“Whenever he opens a new golf course, because he owns 14 and operates another 5, he performs the first club champion by himself and declares that the club championship and places his title on the wall.”
