Gossip & Rumors
The Donald Cheats? -- F-O-R-E!!!

Billionaire entrepreneur Donald Trump took in a round of golf with a threesome Tuesday afternoon at his Los Angeles course, Trump National Golf Club in Rancho Palos Verdes, Calf. - and sources tell TMZ they caught him cheating at his golf game!

Numerous sources tell us The Donald shanked his shot from the tee out of bounds into the weeds.  He then proceeded to drive his golf cart - alone-  down to find his ball.  When he noticed his ball went into the natural preserve area, he turned his golf cart to block him as he took a ball out of his pocket, looked over at his partners to make sure they weren't watching, and rolled the new ball into the rough.

 The rule in golf is when you hit your ball into the natural preserve, it's played as a lateral hazard.  This means you drop your ball 2 club lengths from point of entry.  Donald's ball was dropped much further than 2 club lengths from point of entry - more like 4 or 5.

When the new roll sunk too deep into the rough grass, Trump picked up the ball and placed it higher in the grass to improve the lie of his ball.  The Donald then got into his golf cart to drive back to his partners to tell them he found his ball.

When you're Donald, you don't have too many people to answer to.  BTW Happy Birthday Donald- you turned 60 today!

Calls placed to Donald Trump's reps were not immediately returned.

63. It would be fun to watch Donald play with Bill Clinton. Like two of John Lovett's chararters from Saturday Night Live. The only true ball that they hit would be when they stepped on a rake.

64. Is this serious? You show me a golfer and I will show you a person that has at one time or other improved their lie. And if they deny, you can add liar to their resume. If he had been playing in a tournament or something, that's another thing, but just playing a round ... c'mon ... are we a bored society or what ?

66. Millions of golfers would do that as long as it isn't a tournament or a serious round. But whatever, I guess cheating is cheating. Let's get him.

74. There are so many important things to focus on and this is not one of them.

75. You can tell a lot about a person by just playing one round of golf with them. This tells me The Donald is NOT a nice guy and he is a cheater. I knew I did not like his arrogance and now I know why!
