TDFG Issues Statement Claiming a Hole-in-One at His West Palm Beach Golf Course.

Former President Trump on Monday touted in a statement hitting a hole-in-one while playing at his golf club in West Palm Beach, Fla., on Saturday after some social media users questioned his abilities.

"Trump just made a hole-in-one!" Tim Swain, a Republican running for Senate in South Carolina, captioned a photo posted to Twitter over the weekend. The photo showed Trump celebrating on the green with Hall of Fame golfer Ernie Els, Gene Sauers, Ken Duke and Mike Goodes.

Several commenters on the tweet cast doubt on the claim, prompting Trump to defend his accomplishment, saying it was "100% true."

"Many people are asking, so I'll give it to you now, it is 100% true," Trump wrote in the statement late Monday, which included a video of Trump walking to the hole.

Despite there being a "rather strong wind," the ball "bounced twice and then went clank, into the hole" at the seventh hole, scoring him a hole-in-one, Trump said.

"These great tour players noticed it before I did because their eyes are slightly better, but on that one hole only, their swings weren't," he said...


Of Course he did.

Golf course where North Korea’s leader 'scored 11 holes-in-one in first-ever round' revealed for first time

Stunning pictures of Pyongyang Golf Course show where Kim Jong-il - current leader Kim Jong-un’s father - played his one and only game and outshone every pro golfer who ever lived

These stunning pictures reveal for the first time the golf course where North Korea ’s leader 'scored 11 holes-in-one in his first-ever and only ever round'.

The photographs of Pyongyang Golf Course - just a 30-minute drive from the capital - show it boasts a surprisingly well-maintained clubhouse with a shop for equipment and snacks.

It’s where Kim Jong-il - current leader Kim Jong-un ’s father and predecessor - boasted he landed 11 holes-in-one during his very first round of golf in 1994.

The audacious claims led to the communist despot being ridiculed on the international stage - although one Western journalist who witnessed events claimed the number was closer to five.

"Despite there being a "rather strong wind," the ball "bounced twice and then went clank, into the hole" at the seventh hole, scoring him a hole-in-one, Trump said."

He forgot to mention he was teeing off at the 12th.

The sad thing is that some of the MSM will cover it with the same of intensity as they are doing with the Ukraine war -- or Super Bowl. Super Bowel?
