A young man’s account of witnessing a golf outing by President Joe Biden has sparked widespread discussion online. In a post on the discussion forum Reddit, the unnamed man claims to have seen Biden golfing just outside Washington D.C. in what he described as a “wild” round.
A cart boy shares his story of when Biden came to play at his country club earlier this year:

According to the eyewitness, Biden’s round started off poorly with an initial shanked tee shot that flew far off target into the parking lot. The President then reportedly claimed his next swing was just a “practice swing” after completely whiffing on the ball.
Joe Biden is spotted in public for the first time on his vacation to the Virgin Islands as he played a round of golf.

Things didn’t improve on the greens either, says the man. On the par 4 12th hole, Biden narrowly chipped the ball past the hole but still needed 2 putts from 12 feet to hole out. “Have some pride, Joe,” the eyewitness commented.
Further struggles were on display on the par 5 13th when Biden allegedly threw his club in frustration after his approach shot, although the toss only traveled a reported 8 yards given Biden’s age.
The biggest shock came with the length of the round - a staggering 6 hours according to the Reddit poster. Most casual rounds take 4-5 hours to complete.
The eyewitness account has generated major buzz online since being shared. Many speculate about how much is true given Biden’s status as President. Others note that errant shots and slow play could be expected from any 81 year old golfer.
America will continue debating this wild tale from the links. One thing is clear - Biden’s golf game, if the story is accurate, still has plenty of room for improvement.
You had a convincing story until the club toss.

Joe shot a 96...

For 9 holes
A 96 with 12 foot gimmes? So, real score was about 116.
