(Reuters\/Phil Noble)<\/p>\n<p>For context, Trump initially took shots at Biden\u2019s golf game during their June 27, 2024, presidential debate in Atlanta. A couple of weeks later, Trump challenged Biden to a golf match, saying he would give $1 million to charity if he were to lose.<\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s response to the petty officer was one of confidence, saying he would &#8220;love&#8221; to face off against Biden on the links.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I mean, I\u2019ve invited him, but he doesn\u2019t want to show up,&#8221; Trump said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You have a lot of people talk, but they can\u2019t play like Biden. Biden can\u2019t hit a ball 30 yards. I\u2019m telling you, I looked at his swing. He cannot hit a ball 30 yards,&#8221; Trump said. &#8220;He said he was a six handicapper. That was the only thing that made me angry. During the debate with him, he said he was a six. I said, \u2018You\u2019re not a six.\u2019 And he said, \u2018Well, I\u2019m an eight.\u2019 I said, \u2018That was quick. I picked up two.\u2019 But he\u2019s not 100. He\u2019s not 100. But it\u2019s a great game, and I hope you guys get to play a little bit of it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Trump added that he knew &#8220;a lot about golf&#8221; and ran through his career r\u00e9sum\u00e9 on the course.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019ve won 38 club championships, and I don\u2019t get to practice much. I won one last year. I won a club championship at a big club, beating a 27-year-old kid. I said, you know, I\u2019m decades older than you, but I said, \u2018The fairway doesn\u2019t know how old you are as you walk up the middle, and he\u2019s in the rough.\u2019 I\u2019ve been a good golfer over the years.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/donald-trump-golf.jpg\" alt=\"Donald Trump playing golf\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\"\/> <\/p>\n<p>Former President Donald Trump follows his tee shot on the third tee during the pro-am prior to the LIV Golf Invitational &#8211; Bedminster at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, N.J., Aug. 10, 2023.
