    I hate Trump as much as the next one but he’s not a bad golfer. He’s just a cheater too. From your own article: “Why does Trump cheat so much when he’s already a decent player?” The two can be the same. Especially for his age. But all that to say that with as much time and money as he has put into the sport, he SHOULD be good at it. It shouldn’t be a surprise that he’s a decent golfer but he should be a better golfer given how much time and effort and money he’s put into it.

      There is a vast gulf between “decent player” and “legitimately good golfer.” He is not the latter. He would never have made it as a professional even if he never cheated.

        Tbf, pros are above “legit good,” they’re the best, in any sport not just golf. One can be “good” at something without being “as good as the literal professionals.”

        That said, the difference between “legit good” and “decent” is as subjective as “how many counts as a ‘bunch.’”
