When discussing golf and politics, Donald Trump shines with a handicap score of 2.5. Aside from that, Trump has been frequently seen on the greens, showcasing his skills. Adding three recent victories to his record, which includes the Club Championship, Trump also emerged victorious in the Senior Club and Super-Senior Club Championships last week.

Winning the senior club and super-senior club championships was a “great honor” for Trump. However, this honor was further extended with his recent victory. Trump appears pleased with his accomplishments at the Trump International. But do fans share the same sentiment towards the former president?

As Trump celebrated these victories, fans took the opportunity to express criticism towards him, particularly after a video of the Club Championship went viral on Twitter. A video from “NUCLR GOLF” featured POTUS’s swing, prompting mixed reactions from fans, with the majority leaning towards the negative ones.

However, this is not new for the 45th President, as he has been subjected to harsh criticism in the past for having a “horrible swing.” History appears to be repeating itself for Trump, even after his victories at the tournaments.

The video from NUCLR Golf received numerous comments against the former president following the club championship. However, there were a few who still expressed appreciation for Trump’s swing.

One fan vented their frustration towards the video, commenting, “Seen way too much on here,” implying that the swing was unpleasant to watch. And continued with “Why do we give a cr*p?” displaying their lack of interest in the former president’s swing.

One fan expressed frustration, describing the swing as “legendary,” but insinuating that such a description exists only in the former president’s “mind.” This likely suggests that only Trump himself believes his swings are commendable.

Another fan commented that the swing is “light-years better than everything else about him,” suggesting that they believe it’s the only skill the former president possesses.

Nonetheless, a fan commended Trump’s golf swing, stating, “Good for his age,” indicating that they considered it a commendable swing for a 77-year-old.

This fan shared a similar sentiment and commented, “Not bad for a 78-year-old!” again factoring in Trump’s age while also appreciating the speed of Trump’s swing by saying, “Good speed.”

Following this swing, mixed reactions toward Trump are flooding social media. However, the undeniable fact remains: the 77-year-old secured his third victory. What are your thoughts on his recent win at the Club Championship?
