Reactions to Trump’s Golf Awards on Social Media
Tim O’Brien, a senior executive at Bloomberg Opinion, responded to Biden’s comeback. He said, “Biden’s being too kind by not pointing out that Trump cheats at golf all the time.” Like Biden’s comment, O’Brien’s comment also sparked controversy. Social media users on X referenced sports writer Rick Reilly’s 2019 book “Commander in Cheat: How Golf Explains Trump.” One user tweeted a video of Reilly in an interview recounting how Trump “tried to cheat” the legendary golfer Tiger Woods. “Tiger freaking Woods,” said Reilly.
He described how Trump “chokes one,” sending his ball into the water with a swing, and then “says to his partner, throw me another one, they didn’t see,” Reilly recalled. The writer also recounted how Trump would “tell people that he won club championships that he didn’t even play in.” He also noted that the former President claimed to have won at least six or seven tournaments where “he was the only guy playing in the tournament.”

The Trump Campaign Shot Back at Biden
Joe Biden and Donald Trump recently clinched their parties’ respective nominations and have set their sights on the general election this November. The campaigns have revved up in recent weeks as they prepare for their projected rematch.
According to The Hill/Decision Desk HQ’s national polling average, Trump is barely ahead of Biden by one percentage point. The Trump campaign shot back at Biden in a statement, criticizing his physical capabilities. “Crooked Joe Biden is jealous because anything he does physically is an embarrassment, whether it is falling off his bike, whiffing on golf balls, or just generally falling on his ass in front of the world,” Trump’s spokesperson said.
