Former President Donald Trump claims to have hit a hole-in-one at his Florida golf course while playing a round with former world top golfer Ernie Els.
The shot was said to be hit on Saturday on the par-three 7th at the Trump International, West Palm Beach.
The news comes on the heels of a federal judge saying Trump likely committed felonies during his attempts to overturn the presidential election. In addition, the House January 6 committee recommended criminal contempt charges for Dan Scavino and Peter Navarro, two of his aides.
