WASHINGTON, DC: Donald Trump bragged about his impeccable golfing skills during the first presidential debate with Joe Biden. The 45th president of the United States claimed he has won several club championships before mocking Joe Biden for his poor golfing skills.

Trump said, "To do that, you have to be quite smart, and you have to be able to hit the ball a long way, and I do it. [Biden] doesn’t do it. He can’t hit a ball 50 yards. He challenged me to a golf match — he can’t hit a ball 50 yards."
