LIV Golf star Phil Mickelson weighed in on the recent debate between President Biden and former President Trump, where the discussion turned to their golf handicaps. Mickelson expressed his view that the debate remained civil until the topic of golf was brought up.
During the debate, Trump boasted about winning two regular club championships, emphasizing the importance of skill and distance in golf. He challenged Biden's golf abilities, claiming that Biden couldn't hit a ball 50 yards and questioning the accuracy of Biden's reported handicap of six.
Biden defended his golf skills by mentioning that he had achieved a handicap of six during his time as vice president. However, Trump dismissed this claim as a 'lie,' casting doubt on Biden's golfing prowess.
The conversation around golf handicaps between the two leaders caught the attention of Bryson DeChambeau, another golfer on the LIV circuit, who suggested the idea of a golf match between Trump and Biden on his YouTube channel.
As of now, it seems that golf enthusiasts will have to wait for any potential match between Trump and Biden, as the focus remains on the political stage rather than the golf course.
