It’s no secret that President Trump loves golf.
The 79-year-old President of the United States has been playing golf for more than 50 years. President Trump has played dozens of rounds of golf this year, despite taking office in late January. He’s a pretty good player, too, with his handicap being registered as a 2.8 in the Golf Handicap Information Network. It’s the lowest registered handicap of any sitting president in U.S. history.
