Harry Kane recounts surreal golf round with Donald Trump ahead of World Cup
England captain Harry Kane confirmed that he played a round of golf with former US President Donald Trump about 18 months ago in Palm Beach, Florida, after Trump invited him. Kane described the experience as "surreal" and praised Trump’s golf game, saying he was impressed by how well the president still plays.
The revelation was made during a pre‑match press conference before England’s World Cup knockout match, and follows Trump’s public praise of Kane and his decision to cheer England in the tournament. The story has been reported in multiple languages, highlighting the unusual crossover between a top football star and a polarising political figure.
Kane’s comments focus on the personal encounter and do not endorse any political stance, while the episode has drawn attention from both sports fans and political observers.
