Donald Trump reportedly claimed another win earlier this week, two months on from his presidential election victory.
The president-elect will return to the Oval Office next week when he will be sworn in to his second term in office on Monday.
However, Trump has spent the days leading up to his inauguration in a familiar setting: the golf course.
The 78-year-old is said to have won the senior club championship at his own Trump International at Palm Beach with an incredible score of four-under 68.
‘Shark Tank’ host Kevin O’Leary shared on social media Sunday that Trump shot the four-under round when he visited him at the weekend.
‘Great day with the #President. A gracious host. And, he shot a 68! My recommendation, try the Trump Burger!’ O’Leary wrote on X with a photo of himself, Trump and Canadian politician Danielle Smith.

A photo showing the president-elect at the top of a championship leaderboard later went viral
A photo, reportedly originally shared by Instagram user @leomary_, later went viral showing the leaderboard at the golf course.
The snap showed the incoming president at the top of the leaderboard with a score of 68 and 40 Stableford points, which read ‘2025 Senior Club Championship,’ on a Trump International letterhead.
However, a report from the Palm Beach Post claimed that no one had seen the president-elect compete at the golf course.
Trump was ‘not being known to have played in the tournament until his name was spotted atop of the leaderboard,’ according to the report.
The outlet added that Trump’s appearance atop the scoring board ’caused surprise among attendees and followers of the event.’
However, Trump has a record of winning at the course, having previously won two events at the course – a club championship and a senior championship trophy.
During his one and only presidential debate against Joe Biden before the Democratic candidate pulled out of the race, Trump had bragged about his handicap.
The debate teetered off the rails as the two elderly candidates traded jabs about each other’s golf games after they answered questions from CNN moderator Dana Bash about concerns voters have expressed about their age.
Their bickering descended into Trump and Biden engaging in a standoff over their handicaps.

Biden later pulled out of the election, leaving Trump to battle Kamala Harris instead, who he defeated at the ballot box in November.
Trump, who has previously claimed to have shot a round of 69 on another occasion, boasts that he plays of single figures. USGA records do verify that his handicap is registered at 2.5.
Since leaving office following his first term, Trump has hosted multiple LIV Golf tournaments at his New Jersey, Washington DC and Miami golf courses. He has regularly attended the events, playing up to the crowds and brushing shoulders with the likes of Dustin Johnson, Bryson DeChambeau and Brooks Koepka by competing the Pro-Am competitions.
Ahead of last November’s election, which saw him seal his return to the White House, Trump also starred in a video with US Open champion DeChambeau on the star’s YouTube channel.
