you know this is probably net score right? his gross score minus his course handicap

at his age, on that course, Trump is probably a high teens handicap

most of the guys he is playing against are probably the same

now questions about the legitimacy of his handicap, foot wedges, found balls etc are fair game

Trump golf balls.

Proven to help golfers get a birdie on every hole.

I like Trump but he's a cheater on the golf course which is absolute scumbag material.

One of his club championships "wins" was a two day tournament where he only played one round

No, his club championships are not legit.

There are actual videos of him losing balls and his security team dropping balls down for him pretending they found them.

Not sure how it’s far fetched.

Except he says he won the Super Senior AND Senior. So yea, 80 year old Trump really beat out all the 50-55 year olds at Bedminster

Yeah, i guess some folks don't understand how golf works and just believe the scores blindly.

"I've won 38 golf championships and I don't get to practice very much," Trump said. "I beat a 27-year-old kid. I've won 38 of them, every one of them legitimately. It has to be legitimate because you have a lot of people following you with club championships."

Commander in Cheat

Guy is an absolute clown on the golf course.

Imagine being a member at these clubs, say a 52 year old scratch golfer and you go out and shoot a legit 68 in a club championship and two days later Trump wins the club championship by posting a 67 with a round nobody except the secret service saw. Or other times when he played in the Club Championship the week before the actual CC and he counted that round as his tournament round

Guys are probably like OFFS.

Lol we all know he can make some decent shots. A lot of people can. Its the bad shots that matter when you are trying to shoot 70.

Look at the youtuber that played at the pga tour event this weekend on a sponsor exemption. Hes a +2 handicap and shot an 81 and finished dead last in the field. He can make shots with the best in the world, but also shot an 8 on a par 5.

Haha why would we need therapy for pointing out the obvious truth. Its folks that cant accept reality that need to see a psych

or do you think his caddy/security detail doesn't do this when it's for something as sacred as the club championship?

I think the weirdest part to me is him saying that he won with a score of 70, which makes it seem like that’s what he shot.

Eta: looks like the picture indicates him playing off a scratch handicap and that he shot 70 gross and net… not sure I believe that one
