Hollywood star Samuel L Jackson once accused Donald Trump of cheating at golf after the US president denied suggestions that he played a round with the highest-grossing actor of all time.

Trump, who owns 12 different golf courses across America, has previously discussed his admiration for the sport.

"I often get asked why did I get involved in golf," he told Today's Golfer. "Well, I have friends that are very successful people and they love to garden. And I like to garden too – just in a much bigger way."

He may have friends who play the game, but we're not entirely sure Samuel L Jackson is one of them.

Back in 2016, Jackson claimed in an interview with Rhapsody magazine that he’d received a bill from Trump’s National Golf Club, even though wasn't a member. “I would never say buddies,” he said. “Or friends. I’ve golfed with him."

When asked who the better golfer was, Jackson replied: “Oh, I am, for sure. I don’t cheat.”

After claiming to have played golf with Trump, the soon-to-be-president proceeded to respond to those claims.

“I don’t know @SamuelLJackson, to best of my knowledge haven’t played golf w/him & think he does too many TV commercials—boring," he said on Twitter, now known as X. "Not a fan."

Jackson would respond by posting the bill from Trump on his Instagram account. “A bill from the guy that doesn’t know me & never golfed with me," he wrote. "I’m gonna Block his a** too!”

It didn't stop there. Jackson addressed his beef with Trump on “The Late Show with Seth Meyers” and suggested he played a round with the US president alongside fellow actor Anthony Anderson.

He would also accuse the politician of cheating. “I met him a lot,” said Jackson. “We clearly saw him hook a ball into a lake at Trump National in Jersey. And his caddy told him, ‘We found it.’”

Meyers replied: "Was the caddie soaking wet when he said this?" to which Jackson hit back: "No, he was not. He just took off running, and the next thing you know – 'I got it, Mr. Trump!'"

Jackson, who claimed Trump had called him personally to go for a game of golf, said the businessman would also refer to himself in third person as "The Don".
