‘When the president invites you…’ Harry Kane confirms golf game with Trump

England captain Harry Kane has confirmed that he once played golf with U.S. President Donald Trump, describing the outing as a “pretty surreal experience” after Trump recently disclosed their round together.

Speaking ahead of England’s quarter-final game against Norway, the Bayern Munich striker said the game took place about 18 months ago in Palm Beach, Florida, after Trump invited him to play.

“I played alright to be honest,” said Kane.

“He invited me to play when I was down in Palm Beach. So yeah, when the president invites you somewhere…

“It was a pretty surreal experience just to meet him and obviously play golf with him.

The England captain admitted he held his own on the course but was particularly impressed by Trump’s game.

“His golf is pretty good, to be honest with you. I hope I can play golf as good as him when I’m his age, that’s for sure. A unique experience, but I was just grateful that he invited me to play.”

Trump first revealed the golfing outing earlier this week while speaking to reporters after Kane inspired England to a 3-2 victory over Mexico in the FIFA World Cup Round of 16, scoring six goals and providing one assist so far in the tournament.

“I think Kane is a great player,” Trump said.

“I played golf with him and I like him a lot. He’s a good golfer too. He’s really great.”
