Former President Donald Trump recently took on reigning U.S. Open champion Bryson DeChambeau in a charity golf event at Trump National Golf Club Bedminster in New Jersey. This event came shortly after a heated exchange between Trump and President Joe Biden about their golf handicaps during the first presidential debate.
During the debate, Trump boasted about winning two “club championships” and questioned Biden’s golfing abilities, claiming that Biden couldn’t hit a ball 50 yards. Biden, in response, stated that he had managed to bring his handicap down to six during his time as vice president. However, Trump dismissed this claim as a “lie.”
The charity golf event with DeChambeau allowed Trump to showcase his golf swing once again. Impressed by Trump’s skills on the course, DeChambeau commended his performance, highlighting a great shot by the former president.
Together, Trump and DeChambeau scored an impressive 22-under par during the event. They pledged to donate $10,000 for each stroke under par to the Wounded Warrior Project, resulting in a total donation of $220,000 for the day.
DeChambeau expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to play with Trump and raise money for a worthy cause. The event was intended to be a lighthearted and fun way to support the Wounded Warrior Project while enjoying a round of golf.
Overall, the charity golf event provided a platform for Trump and DeChambeau to come together, set aside political differences, and focus on a common goal of giving back to the community. The day was a success in terms of raising funds for a charitable cause and showcasing the talents of both players on the golf course.
