Tiger Woods is scheduled to play golf with Donald Trump at the president-elect's West Palm Beach, Florida, golf course on Friday, according to the pool report.
Woods and Trump are expected to tee off at Trump International Golf Club along with two club members, according to Golf Digest.
Trump had a handicap of 2.8 as of August.
Trump's golf courses have been one controversial point throughout the transition ahead of his January inauguration. The clubs are viewed as part of a possible conflict of interest between the Trump Organization and his responsibilities as president. The Associated Press has reported that a charity operated by his son Eric Trump repeatedly made payments for services or donations that went to the golf clubs as well as charities linked to the Trumps by corporate, family or philanthropic relationships.

A Brief History of Accusations That Donald Trump Cheats at Golf
Andy Cush
05 May 2016
Donald Trump almost certainly cheats at golf. He denies this vehemently, just as he denies that there is violence at his campaign rallies. (There is definitely violence at his campaign rallies.) And while we may not have video of Donald secretly moving his ball into the fairway, the way we do of his supporters punching people, there are plenty of people who have come out and said they saw the cheating firsthand.
The latest accuser is Oscar de la Hoya, who told the AP this week that he once caught Trump breaking the rules twice in two holes while playing with him. And not in a mild, excusable way, either:
Donald, what he does is he tees off first so we go off to our balls and what do we see but Donald Trump right in the middle of the fairway, De La Hoya said. He said, Hey look, I found my first ball.
On the next hole, a par-3, De La Hoya said Trump hit into some bushes and again went ahead of the other players in his cart. When the rest of the group got to the green, he said Trumps ball was 3 feet from the hole.
And by the way Im picking it up, De La Hoya quoted Trump as saying. Its a gimme.
The former boxing champ is far from the first person to be baffled by the Donalds golf game. In January, Samuel L. Jackson was asked about the differences between the presumptive Republican nominees style of play and his own. His answer was devastatingly simple: I dont cheat.

I saw some short footage of Trump actually swinging a club. Brutal. He may have been a decent golfer decades ago, but there is no way he has a a handicap under 10 without cheating.

Trump sucks at golf.

(7,606 posts)obnoxious dirtbag. I used to like the PGA Tour until people who worship his ass started watching and following golf only to see him (many admit that if he's not playing in a given tournament, they don't watch it). They have turned me off golf and I very rarely watch it anymore.
I'd be willing to bet most of them couldn't name another single golfer on the Tour. I don't think it's an accident that he is associating with Trump. Birds of a feather, and all that.
