Tweet claims Donald Trump hit a hole-in-one before his Georgia rally. Some on Twitter have doubts.

Donald Trump was scheduled to speak at 7 p.m. Saturday night at his “Save America” rally in Commerce, Georgia.

Before he got there, he appeared to be doing one of his favorite activities: playing golf.

And according to one of his playing partners, he made a hole-in-one. But not everyone on Twitter was buying it.

Tim Swain is a Republican running for Senate in South Carolina. He posted a photo of a group of people having a round of golf. In the group was Ernie Els, a Hall of Fame golfer and four-time major winner.

“Trump just made a hole-in-one!” Swain wrote in all caps.

Trump owns several golf courses in Florida, as well as one in North Carolina.

Twitter has doubts over Trump’s hole-in-one

The post got some congratulatory reviews, as well as plenty of people sowing doubt on whether the former president actually sank the ace.

In golf circles, Trump is known for cheating to post better scores in golf and breaking standard golf etiquette.

People also brought up the infamous story of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, who said he got a hole-in-one in all 18 holes on the course the first time he played a round of golf.
