Just when you thought you’d seen it all from Donald Trump on the golf course, new videos from his weekend round at Turnberry in Scotland are stirring up fresh controversy.

The former U.S. president is once again being accused of cheating, and this time, there’s footage that fans and critics alike can’t stop talking about.


Caught on Camera at Turnberry

Over the weekend, Trump was spotted playing at his luxurious Turnberry course.

But instead of showcasing his swing, it’s his “creative” approach to the rules that’s grabbing headlines.

In one viral clip, Trump is seen chipping out of the rough into a bunker—only to follow up with a couple of missed putts on the green.

Rather than finishing the hole, he casually picked up his ball after missing again. Golf etiquette? Not exactly.


Caddie Help Raises Eyebrows

A separate video taken from inside a nearby building has caused an even bigger stir.

It shows Trump pulling up in a golf cart, with the fairway on one side and some rough terrain on the other.

Then, as if out of a scripted skit, a caddie walks over, stops, and drops a golf ball right in front of Trump.

He casually strolls over with a club to take his next shot—as if nothing unusual happened.

The camera cuts before we see the swing, but viewers had already seen enough.


Social Media Lights Up with Reactions

It didn’t take long for the internet to explode with jokes, memes, and criticism.

One user quipped, “Who needs a foot wedge when you have a personal ball dropper?” Others compared him to fictional or outlandish golf characters, including Kim Jong Un.

Even PGA professionals joined in, with one commenter calling the clip a “perfect metaphor for our Commander-in-Cheat.”


Trump’s History of Bending the Rules

This isn’t exactly new territory for Trump. Sportswriter Rick Reilly literally wrote a book titled Commander in Cheat detailing Trump’s infamous antics on the green.

According to Reilly, Trump’s golf “strategy” includes kicking balls out of tough spots, lying about his score, and manipulating play when no one’s looking.

At Trump’s private club, Winged Foot, caddies allegedly nicknamed him “Pele” because he kicked the ball so often.


Hollywood’s Got Stories Too

Celebrities have also chimed in over the years. Actor Samuel L. Jackson has publicly accused Trump of cheating during a round of golf.

Comedian and actor Anthony Anderson made a similar claim back in 2016.

It seems anyone who’s teed off with Trump has a story—or a warning.


Not Just Golf on His Mind

While Trump was busy grabbing headlines for his golf game, he also managed to meet with newly elected UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer during his visit to Scotland.

Their discussions reportedly touched on international issues, including the ongoing crisis in Gaza.

Trump also took the opportunity to criticize Russian President Vladimir Putin and insisted once again that he never visited Jeffrey Epstein’s infamous island, adding that he’s not particularly curious about the Epstein files.


Golf Drama Overshadows Diplomatic Visit

What could have been a straightforward diplomatic visit quickly turned into a public spectacle—once again revolving around Trump’s conduct on the golf course.

With cameras rolling and the internet watching, even a round of golf becomes part of the political circus.
