Donald Trump called out by golf legend's daughter after making comment about her father's penis size

The US President made a distasteful remark about the former golfer and his daughter was not pleased.

A golf legend’s daughter has already made her feelings clear after Donald Trump made some unsavoury comments about her late father.

Trump, 78, made the remarks about Arnold Palmer - who passed away in 2016 - when the now-US President was speaking at a campaign rally in October 2024.

The 78-year-old spoke in Palmer’s hometown of Latrobe, Pennsylvania, when he made comments about the size of the former golfer’s penis to the dismay of many - including the golfer's daughter.

“This is a guy that was all man,” said Trump.

“This man was strong and tough, and … when he took showers with the other pros, they came out of there – they said, ‘Oh my God. That’s unbelievable.’”

During his trophy-laden playing career, Palmer won 62 PGA tour events, four Masters, a U.S Open and two Open Championships just to name a few of his several accolades and is widely considered to be one of the best golfers of all time.

But his daughter, Peg Palmer Wears, was not at all pleased by Trump’s comments about her father and hit back when speaking on ABC News in the days that followed.

"Being at the airport, which is named for my dad, where he flew out of to go to work every day or every week, you know, to come there and talk about … hackneyed anecdotes from the locker room … seemed disrespectful and inappropriate to me,” said Wears.

"The people coming to these rallies deserve substance about plans Trump has as a candidate if he could elucidate on some of the threats he's made to people," she continued. "I mean, these are important issues that should be discussed for people when they're getting ready to vote, and using my dad to cover over the important things just seems unacceptable to me."

Trump is an admirer of Palmer with Wears explaining how her father was Republican party supporter before he died in 2016 – although she wasn’t convinced that he would be happy with current state of affairs in the States.

“He grew up poor and became rich,” Wears told Sporting News in 2018 when speaking about her father. “He was a Goldwater Republican and believed in the Republican party. He and I learned not to discuss politics together. We saw things very differently, and there was no sense in fighting about it.”

“My dad was disciplined,” she added. “He wanted to be a good role model. He was appalled by Trump's lack of civility and what he began to see as Trump's lack of character."

Despite many people’s protestations, Trump won the presidential election and became the 47th President of the United States as a result.
