England captain Harry Kane<\/a> has revealed what playing golf with US President Donald Trump<\/a> was really like.<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, Trump told reporters they had previously played a round together, saying: “I think Kane is a great player. I played golf with him and I like him a lot. He’s a good golfer too. He’s really great.”<\/p>\n

In a press conference ahead of England’s FIFA World Cup<\/a> quarter-final clash with Norway, Kane confirmed the round took place.<\/p>\n

“We played about 18 months ago, he invited me to play when I was down in Palm Beach,” said Kane.<\/p>\n

“When the President invites you somewhere, it was a pretty surreal experience just to meet him and play golf with him. His golf is pretty good to be honest with you, I hope I can play golf as good as him when I’m his age that’s for sure.<\/p>\n

“Unique experience but I was grateful he invited me down to play.”<\/p>\n

Kane will be looking to lead England to their fourth World Cup semi-final as they take on Norway, whose attack will be led by Manchester City’s Erling Haaland.<\/p>\n

England topped their group en route to the quarter-finals, beating Croatia and Panama with a draw against Ghana, before coming from behind to beat DR Congo in the round of 32 with England then beating co-hosts Mexico in a round of 16 thriller.<\/p>\n

Norway finished second in their World Cup group after beating Iraq and Senegal before losing to France. Norway then beat Ivory Coast in a round of 32 clash and upset Brazil in their round of 16 match to progress to a quarter-final against England.<\/p>\n

The winner of England v Norway will play the winner of Argentina v Switzerland, which will be the final quarter-final to take place. Spain take on France in a semi-final after Spain beat Belgium 2-1 late on.<\/p>\n
