00:00Welcome to TMZ Sports. I'm Mike Babcock with my guy as always, Mojo Mutati. Mojo, we're
00:11going to start with what would be, I think it would be the biggest golf match in the
00:16history of the entire sport. President Joe Biden against former president Donald Trump.
00:23Of course, Mojo, this was one of the most talked about moments from probably the most
00:28talked about presidential debate of all time. Donald Trump, Joe Biden going back and forth
00:34at the debate a couple of weeks ago about who had a better golf game. Well, it's been
00:39a lot of conversations since that debate. A lot of it has to do with the president Biden's
00:44future as a politician, not so much about golf. Well, that was until President Trump
00:51had a campaign stop yesterday in Miami. Many, many of his supporters were out there and
00:59Mojo, the conversation turned back to golf and Donald Trump got a little bit of an offer,
01:06a challenge to the president. Watch this. I'm also officially challenging Joe to an 18-hole golf match right here.
01:21On Doral's Blue Monster, considered one of the greatest tournament golf courses anywhere in the world.
01:27One of the great courses of the world. It will be among the most watched sporting events in history.
01:34Maybe bigger than the Ryder Cup or even the Masters. And I will even give Joe Biden 10 strokes aside.
01:4310 strokes, that's a lot. That means 20 strokes in case you don't play golf. I will give him 10 strokes aside.
01:51And if he wins, I will give the charity of his choice, any charity that he wants, $1 million.
01:59And I'll bet you he doesn't take the offer.
02:07So there was Mojo. Obviously, Donald Trump, he owns a bunch of golf courses.
02:12He's a big golf fan. And he said it right there. He said this would be bigger than the Ryder Cup,
02:17maybe even the Masters. And bar none, the Masters is the most prestigious golf tournament of the entire world.
02:23So Mojo, we've got 78-year-old Donald Trump challenging 81-year-old President Biden.
02:29I don't know if it's going to happen. I'd say probably not, Mojo. But one can dream.
02:36Total age of almost 160 years between just two people.
02:42They're both running for president.
02:44This is just totally absurd. The presidential debate and golf is the lingering topic of debate.
02:56This is the one thing that the two presidential candidates of the United States of America
03:03are still going back and forth about golf, ladies and gentlemen.
03:10This is it. The only thing here, maybe that isn't a joke to this entire thing is the fact that
03:19this probably would actually be the most viewed sporting event of all time.
03:24You don't even have to like sports. You don't have to like golf, nothing.
03:28You're tuning in to watch this thing go down. It never were to happen.
03:33I don't think it would go down. I would bet money that it wouldn't happen myself, actually.
03:38But I guess you can always dream. So we've heard what Donald Trump had to say about this.
03:45You knew Biden was going to have a response.
03:48Oh, did he respond, Mojo? He responded?
03:51He did indeed, Babcock. He took to his social media.
03:55And this is what he had to say. Donald Trump is a liar, a convict and a fraud.
04:02Only out for himself. Par for the course.
04:11Well, I mean, I don't know. To me, it sounds like he was talking about 99 percent of any politician with that comic.
04:17It's just not anybody, really. Right.
04:20That's the topic of debate, sir.
04:23I guess the golf ball is in the president's court. Day two.
04:31Day two.
