Donald Trump lie over golf championships exposed | Golf News

Donald Trump’s alleged listing of accomplishments on the greens and fairways has once again come under query.

Despite the heavy load of obligations that come with being president, Trump has still managed to carve out almost one-fifth of his time in workplace for golf. Yet he has time and again been accused of bending the foundations on the hyperlinks, including on his current go to to Scotland. The most current allegations come as Travis Kelce dangers upsetting teammates after Trump’s feedback on Taylor Swift. 

Most lately, Trump claimed to have received a whopping 36 Club Championships on Truth Social. Sportswriter Rick Reilly — who authored the 2019 ebook “Commander in Cheat,” which dives into Trump’s plethora of dishonest golf scandals — swiftly poured cold water on this daring declaration, seemingly exposing a slip-up as the 79-year-old beforehand said he only emerged victorious in 24 tournaments.

“Number of ‘championships’ he said he had last time: 24,” Reilly wrote on X. “Number he says he suddenly has now: 36. Number that his twisted ego just skipped: 11. Number of actual ‘championships’ he’s won: 0 #CommanderInCheat.”

Speaking to VOX, Reilly moreover divulged the best way in which Trump amasses faux wins in these membership championships. “Trump’s going around telling people he has won 20. But that’s 100 percent a lie,” he said. “I actually played with him once, and he told me how he does it.

“Whenever he opens a new golf course, because he owns 14 and operates another five, he plays the first club champion by himself and declares that the club championship and puts his name on the wall.”

This is hardly the first time that Reilly has called out Trump for his doubtful habits on the golf course. Last month, a number of videos surfaced showing to show a caddie dropping a new ball for the POTUS at a more favorable lie.

In response to one of the many clips, Reilly wrote: “So you know, it’s NEVER legal for your caddy to drop a ball. YOU can drop one, but never on a green. And since this was a full-score event, its not legal for Trump to drag the ball into the hole. No, no, never. Our president is a f—— golf cheat.

DON’T MISS:

“His caddies also tee him up in the rough, toss his ball out of bunkers, and roll back six footers to him,” Reilly continued in a separate post. “How else is a 79-y-o fat guy supposed to win championships?”

One day prior, Trump confronted another wave of criticism once he sunk a putt at Turnberry but selected not to retrieve his ball from the outlet. As he strolled off the inexperienced, his caddie shortly dashed over to retrieve the ball, moments after his attempt to have a good time with the U.S. President was missed.

According to Reilly, Trump’s dishonest methods and angle on the hyperlinks are the explanations why he’s the “WORST thing to ever happen” to the game. “Now the world thinks it’s just 4 old fat rich white guys who drive their carts on the green, have their caddies cheat 4 them + lie that they won tournaments they didn’t even enter. Plz switch to pickleball,” he added.
