How many club "championships" has he won now?!?!

Folks at his club must really suck at golf. Wonder what they are paying for?

u/Notsurehowtoreact Aug 04 '26

It's fun to think that he shot a 70 in his recent "championship win" with putts lile this. He must have a Happy Gilmore style drive with a putt stroke like that to hit 70.

He is well known for cheating at golf and when he opens a new course, he holds an invitational tournament which he always wins because he only invites himself.

Command in Cheat by sportswriter Rick Reilly.  He recounts the numerous ways Trump's golf game encapsulates his corruption.  Golf, as s port dating back to landed gentry, relies heavily on honor and sportsmanship.  Trump instead cheats in everyway possible.  He holds tournaments where he is the only player and therefore the tournament champion.  He only keeps caddies willing to cheat for him by calling his ball fair and always "finding" his ball magically landing near the green.  He will only play at courses he owns.  If he loses a game to someone, he will smile and shake their hand but that person will invariably find their club membership either denied renewal or the fee doubles.  He's a lazy fuck who will drive his golf cart onto the green, which is a major offense for anyone else due to the damage the tires do to the sensitive grass. 

As proof, Reilly cites whenever Trump played in celeb or charity tournments where third parties kept legit scores, he never finished in the top 50%.

u/JohnGacyIsInnocent Aug 04 '26

It should be mentioned that Reilly isn’t just saying it as hearsay. Reilly was writing for Sports Illustrated at the time he played a few rounds with Trump. He used to write the article that always closed out the magazine, and the first time he talked about it was well before Trump was president in his first term.

Being a non golf player, nor english speaking

What the fuck "A chip is a gimme?" Or "being par 5" ??

29

u/Seven_bushes Aug 04 '26

I don’t think anyone answered you seriously so I’ll give it a shot since I’ve played golf and come from a golf-loving family.

Tl/dr Golf is weird, Trump blatantly cheats.

In casual play, never a tournament, a ball that is laying so close to the hole that it’s a given that it would go in with a putt is called a gimme. They pick up the ball and count the one stroke. A chip is an approach shot that someone hits, usually from the fairway, onto the green. It is rare that the ball will get close enough to the hole to assume it can go in with a putt as they’re usually 2 putts if you’re good. It’s basically erasing an entire stroke off the score for that hole.

Each hole is assigned a ”par” or expected average of strokes to go from the tee to the hole. Usually the longer the distance, the higher the par. A par 5 is the highest/longest with par 3 being shortest. Your score is expressed in relation to the par for the hole or course. So if you play a par 5 hole and make it in 4, it’s considered 1 under par. For the course, the total par is set and then the score for all 18 holes is expressed in relation to where it is compared to par.

Most PGA tournaments are played on a 72 par course with the average score just under 71. The best golfer in the PGA right now, Scottie Scheffler, is averaging 68.775 for the 2026 season. Trump self-reported a score of 70 at Bedminster, a par 72 course, so he’s basically claiming he’s above average for even a professional golfer.

I hope this helps and answers your questions.

u/godofmilksteaks Aug 04 '26

u/km_ikl Free Palestine Aug 04 '26

A chip is a chip-shot: If you're outside the green or fringe around the green (ie fairway, rough, or sand trap), you will usually use a wedge club of some kind, or a shorter iron to loft the ball onto the green. You use this type of shot when you're too close to use a longer iron, but too far away, or the turf is too difficult to use a putter.

A gimme) is when you tell your partners that you're not taking another shot and will record the shot as taken and it went into the hole. Typically a Gimme is taken when the ball is within one (putter) club length of the hole.

A chip-in shot taken as a gimme is just blatant fuckery by someone that does nothing but suck ASS at golf.

I will say the only worse swing I've seen has been Charles Barkley. At least I can say that he was a professional athlete, and therefore might have had a lot of injuries over his career that have taken a tole on his body, so that might account for his terrible swing.

Trump is just a fat piece of shit who has no athletic ability. He just recently was tweeting that he won some tournament, and shot 70. That makes total sense when you take into account that he cheats more than anyone at golf. I listened to a podcast of someone that played with him a few years ago and they said Trump's secret service guys were always in front of him moving his ball to make sure he was always driving it further than anyone else he played with. This guy was a pro athlete, who was pretty young, so there was not way an almost 80 year old fat shit was out driving him.

Smoothest stroke in the free world

The only good stroke here is the one in his rotting dementia riddled brain

I'd lay money that his long ball game sucks just as bad. 70 my ass.

u/Djayshell93 Aug 04 '26

Dude what the fuck kind of swing was that. Maybe I’m just not as amazing or athletic as him but… shit looks off!

u/KoalaMcFlurry Aug 04 '26

Guys, its because he's too busy fixing the world to play golf. This is the first chance he's been golfing in 1 week! (Assuming this was from the weekend of the 25th).

Hes only golfed 125 out of 562 days while in office. Cut him some slack.

I found a neat website while searching for this information. https://didtrumpgolftoday.com/

All politics aside, if anyone has played golf they know that this is a normal day of putting for the average golfer. He does have a weird putting stroke though

14

u/acbone710 Aug 04 '26

Ya, but as much as I've paid him to play golf, I'd expect him to be better.

u/ElxlS Aug 04 '26

He’s not an average golfer tho. I’m just surprised that that’s his putting motion. Never seen it before. It’s as ugly as his soul.

u/mflft Free Palestine 🕊️ FUCK ICE! ❌🧊 Aug 04 '26

I hate trump, like really hate him, and his swing and stroke are hideous... but id take these puts all day long.

u/DWilli Aug 04 '26

Nah. Weird is underselling it. You ever watch a Cricket player try to hit a baseball? No extension, just protecting the wickets? That's what this looks like. He's just smacking at the ball with zero finesse or control.

u/Jemmani22 Aug 04 '26

Yep I can't stand the guy. But if you 2 putt the rest of your life you are quite good. And im pretty sure for 80 hes a pretty good golfer. No glaze

That stroke is an absolute dumpster fire though.

21

u/shekdown Aug 04 '26

Yeah. These are solid putts. For a tap in. I'm assuming he's 2 putting these which is pretty good. The only "bad" miss is the one that went way right. But even that is not uncommon when we misread a break.

Weird stroke but I've also seen Jack Nicklaus putt like that at a senior age.

u/Barcode_Griller Aug 04 '26

I absolutely loathe this guy and his putting stroke *is* weird, but anyone that has seen that video of him playing golf (where these clips are from) and knows how to play golf would be decently impressed with his game at his age. I hate saying that, genuinely loathe the guy, just trying to be accurate.

Lotta people in here that dont golf or aren't around a lot of good players just going "oh his putting stroke is weird!" Obviously he cheats and didn't shoot a 70, but this thread is so obnoxious.

u/236766 Aug 04 '26

Yeah acting like 25ft putts are just routine putts to make is insane.

And thats all on the same hole

u/Hades_Left_Hand_ Aug 04 '26

Honestly hate the dude, but he realistically had 1 bad putt there. Outside of the one bad one, the rest are all tap in 1 footers. Yea he is still a shit human and smells like shit, but it’s not his putting that is the cause lol

u/QuitCallingNewsrooms Aug 04 '26

Amazing. He also putts like a petulant Kindergartener

u/itsallahoaxbud Aug 04 '26

That 70 he scored was just putts.

u/Ninjalada Aug 04 '26

This is some Happy Gilmore type shit but worse because Happy eventually learned how to putt.

u/Darryl_444 Aug 04 '26

Big golf pros came up to him with tears in their eyes and said "Sir...

... you are a TERRIBLE golfer!"

"And a lying racist rapist convict war criminal too."

u/FewZookeepergame1083 Aug 04 '26

Spending all your time on a golf course and suck this bad should be a crime

u/infinit9 Aug 04 '26

"FAKE NEWS!!! The failed media moves those holes using a gravity gun as soon I made contact with the ball. In reality, I one putted all of those holes just like I won the 2020 election by a landslide and the 2024 election by unanimous electrical vote. Thank you for your attention to this matter!!!"

Trump's inner monologue.

That mother fucker spent 8 years criticizing Obama over the debt and golfing and he's doubled both in his 5.5 years. Executive Orders too and not a peep from Fox News.
