President Donald Trump announced his plans, on Friday morning, to spend part of his Black Friday golfing with none other than Tiger Woods.
“After Turkey call I will be heading over to Trump National Golf Club, Jupiter, to play golf (quickly) with Tiger Woods and Dustin Johnson,” Trump wrote on Twitter. “Then back to Mar-a-Lago for talks on bringing even more jobs and companies back to the USA!”

The picture above shows Trump making good on his promise, hanging out on the range with Woods, current No. 1 in the world golfer Dustin Johnson, and Fox golf analyst and former PGA Tour pro Brad Faxon.
Twitter, as you might expect, had some hot takes on the news — with many seizing upon the President’s assurance that he’d play “quickly.” Here’s a sampling of the social media reaction:
Tiger definitely cursed now. https://t.co/WzFjnM7kAH

It’s a good thing I’m not a White House reporter, because my question at the next presidential press conference would definitely be something like, “Um, how did Tiger look? Is he back for real?” https://t.co/ICIcSAQPu6

Today is the 100th day on which Trump has visited a Trump property as president. Probably his 62nd round of golf. That’s golf every 5 days; a visit to a Trump property about every three. pic.twitter.com/eiZ8O6qO1x

Day 101 on a Trump property and his 79th trip to a golf course, all at taxpayer expense … @realDonaldTrump is not letting his part-time job as president interfere with his profiteering or putting. @Morning_Joe pic.twitter.com/SExmrsnoZu

Trump is again using his public office to promote his private golf club to enrich himself and his family. We shouldn’t stand for this. https://t.co/E5eTAVZKSm
