Former President Donald Trump isn’t one to shy away from a challenge, especially when it involves a golf course. At a recent rally, he reignited his long-running feud with President Joe Biden, this time with a brutal jab at Biden’s golfing abilities. Trump’s latest taunt isn’t just a casual dig; it comes with a million-dollar twist, promising drama both on and off the greens. His bold statements are once again turning a simple golf match into a headline-worthy showdown. What did he exactly say?
In a tweet shared by NUCLR GOLF, Trump laid down a challenge that caught everyone’s attention. “🚨🇺🇸👀 #WATCH: Former President Donald Trump says he offered President Joe Biden $1M for a golf match: “I offered him a Million dollars. He said he’s a 6. I said I’ll give you a million dollars if you can break 100. Now a 6 can break 100 easy, but he can’t,” Trump said. This wasn’t just a flippant comment—it was a direct hit at Biden’s self-proclaimed golf handicap. The tweet, shared via @pgamemes_, immediately set off a firestorm of reactions online. Before we move on to the fans’ reaction, this had started a few months ago. What happened?

This latest barb is just the continuation of the one that started a month ago. Back then, Trump made headlines by challenging Biden to a golf match, with a $1 million donation on the line if he lost. Biden, through his team, swiftly declined, dismissing Trump’s challenge as another one of his “weird antics.”
Why does Donald Trump keep pushing this narrative? Part of it lies in their shared history of competitive posturing. During a presidential debate earlier this year, Trump claimed multiple club championships and questioned Biden’s ability to drive a ball even 50 yards. Biden fired back, citing his six-handicap, only to later amend it to an eight. Trump, never one to let an opportunity slide, labeled this as the “biggest lie.” Fans alike had plenty to say about Trump’s latest salvo. What were their exact words?

One fan commented, “He can play. He owns like 20 golf courses so he should be an above average player.” This is not far from the truth. As of recent reports, Trump owns 16 golf properties, including 12 in the United States, two in Scotland, one in Ireland, and one in the United Arab Emirates. His extensive experience with these courses likely gives him an edge in the sport.

Another fan remarked, “One should never have to pay a 6 handicap for a free round of golf. Every 6 I knew would be there before dawn if you were paying.” This statement reflects the competitive nature of golfers with a 6 handicap. They are often eager to play and would indeed be willing to arrive at the golf course very early to secure a free round, especially when an opportunity like this arises.
A different fan commented, “He has trouble getting back up after putting a tee in the ground #TrumpisDone.” This comment likely refers to Donald Trump’s age (78 years old) and physical condition, suggesting that he might struggle with the physical demands of golf.
Another fan commented, “Biden if playing by the rules in a no-cap round, couldn’t break 200 on a tough course with forced carries. I think he’d shoot infinity really, just sculling the ball around.” This remark exaggerates Biden’s potential struggles on a challenging golf course. The comment implies that Biden’s golfing skills might not be up to par, especially on difficult courses that require precise shots and technique.

Finally, one fan quipped, “Trump can’t break 90 on his best day.” This statement challenges Trump’s self-proclaimed golfing abilities. Breaking 90 is a significant milestone for amateur golfers, and this fan doubts Trump’s ability.
