Claim: A video authentically shows U.S. President Donald Trump swinging a golf club, missing the ball and then picking up the ball off the tee.

Rating: Fake

However, the video showing Trump missing the golf drive with his club and then picking the ball up off of the tee was not genuine. The clip featured a watermark for the X user @Tarquin_Helmet, who indicated in several replies he doctored the clip with video-editing software. The user's X bio identifies them as an "English graphic satirist."

An examination of the end of the altered video shows Trump's hand partially disappear when supposedly picking up the ball off of the tee. That moment served as one sign of the clip's fakery.

Washington, D.C., news station WUSA published the original video, which did not show Trump swinging and missing the ball, on May 25, 2023. The clip confirmed the month and year, as well as the location, of the recording as the site of a LIV Golf event at Trump National Golf Club Washington D.C. in Virginia. The event occurred from May 26 to 28. The video shows Trump taking practice swings, successfully hitting the ball off of the tee and then gathering the tee.
