Tiger Woods says he is "impressed" by President-elect Donald Trump's golf game.
"I recently played with President-elect Donald Trump," the golf great wrote on his website. "What most impressed me was how far he hits the ball at 70 years old. He takes a pretty good lash."
Woods said they enjoyed some good-natured needling as they played for fun.
"Our discussion topics were wide-ranging; it was fun. We both enjoyed the bantering, bickering and needling. I also shared my vision for golf and what I'm trying to do," Woods wrote.
"We didn't have a match and played for fun. I was testing drivers and fairway woods, and changed some settings. I think he enjoyed seeing the difference in shots when you experiment."
And Woods noted it is not the first time he's golfed with someone who has been elected president.
"I've now had the privilege of playing golf with Mr. Trump, George H. W. Bush, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, and I appreciate the opportunity."
