Golf pro at Donald Trump's Florida club reveals how good he REALLY is on the course after bizarre Joe Biden row

A golf pro at Donald Trump's Florida club has revealed how good the former president really is on the course -  after Trump bickered with President Joe Biden about their handicaps.

Trump's love of golf is well-documented, as the 78-year-old is frequently seen on the course at his clubs at Mar-a-Lago in Florida and Bedminster, New Jersey.

And after he talked up his golf skills at the presidential debate - saying he'd just won two club championships -  the head golf pro at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida has vouched for his skills.


'At our club championship in March, I watched President Trump hit a perfect 210-yard four iron to within 10 feet of the hole,' John Nieporte said at the Republican National Convention, per the Huff Post.

'He needed to sink that putt to win. Do you think he sunk it? You better believe he sunk that putt.'

Trump attorney Alina Habba later claimed that Trump had 'one heck of a golf swing' and could even keep up with professional golfers.

'He can kick some of those guys' butts,' Habba said.

On Thursday, Trump was joined by his wife, Melania, as he signed the paperwork for him to become the Republican presidential nominee.

He was surrounded by his children and grandchildren as he prepared to address the RNC.

Ivanka Trump, Don Jr., and Tiffany were all with their father in the main box in the convention hall in Milwaukee.

Previously, sportswriter Rick Reilly accused Trump of cheating in golf and using a 'turbo-charged golf cart' faster than his opponents' so that he can move his balls.

Speaking to Deadline White House in March, Reilly also claimed that Trump has 'never won a championship at a course he doesn't own and operate.'

'I've always said golf is like bicycle shorts. It reveals a lot about a guy,' Reilly said. 'And what it reveals about this guy is that he cannot lose. He has to win and he will do anything to cheat.'

'And I know because I played golf with him and he took seven mulligans. He took a 'give me chip-in.' I've never even heard of a 'give me chip-in.''

Either way, Trump is quite confident in his own golfing abilities, and previously claimed that Biden 'can't hit a ball 50 yards' during the debate.

Biden would later claim that he previously had a handicap of six while he was vice president - which Trump scoffed at - before calling his political opponent a 'child.'

Earlier this month, Trump emerged as a shock outside candidate to be the US Ryder Cup captain after Tiger Woods reportedly rejected the role.

He was listed as having a 500/1 chance at guiding the USA against Luke Donald's European team, according to BonusCodeBets.

Trump claims he plays off 2.5 and has regularly bragged about the club championships he has claimed to win.
