It has been alleged that Donald Trump cheats frequently when playing golf, and his caddy allegedly noticed it.
Rumors that Donald Trump cheats when playing golf were stoked when his caddy reportedly made a shocking statement about what he witnessed the President doing on the course.
The 78-year-old is an avid golfer who owns 16 courses, 12 of which are in the US. Trump reportedly spent 18 of the first 69 days of his second term in office on one of his golf courses, racking up a bill of over $26 million for US taxpayers, despite his busy schedule of managing the US and enacting contentious tariffs.
Trump’s skills on the golf course have been praised by many, including numerous PGA players.
However, Trump has frequently been accused of cheating and breaking the rules when playing golf, including by Oscar De La Hoya and Samuel L. Jackson.
He reportedly insisted that his score from the Thursday session be used as his first round score, and he famously declared that he “won” a 2023 tournament despite missing half of it because he had to attend a funeral 600 miles away.
‘Commander in Cheat: How Golf Explains Trump’ is a book written by former Sports Illustrated columnist Rick Reilly, who has frequently told stories about Trump’s instances of cheating.
Reilly has stated publicly that Trump “has to win” and “will do anything to cheat” in his numerous games against the 47th president.
Trump “openly cheats” and has no shame about it, according to 90% of the people he has spoken to, he added.
Additionally, there is a specific story in the book about his caddy that purports to reveal Trump’s antics.
Trump’s caddy revealed his alleged infidelity.
Trump is alleged to have hosted prominent figures in American football, including Ron Jaworski, Jon Gruden, and Mike Tirico, on one occasion.
Together with Gruden, he made a shot on the green that was so spectacular that Tirico’s caddy exclaimed, “Oh my god!” and then gave him a high five.
Even though he appeared to be near the hole, his ball mysteriously ended up 50 feet left in the bunker, and it took him two tries to escape.
Trump referred to it as a “Lousy break,” but Tirico, who has a 12.3 handicap, claims that Trump’s caddy made an extremely ludicrous admission.
“Then Trump’s caddy approached me and said, ‘You know that shot you hit on the par 5?’” he clarified. The distance from the hole was roughly ten feet. It was thrown into the bunker by Trump. I saw him accomplish it.
Despite having been wronged, Tirico paid up without question and without raising any objections.
