It is no secret that golfing is one of the most loved sports of Michael Jordan after retiring from the NBA. The Chicago Bulls superstar used the sport to stay in shape, joins and sponsors celebrity charity tournaments that also see participation from some professional golfers. Jordan is in a golf course so often he has a become a decent player and get the license to call others 'shitty', like the United States president Barack Obama.
Last week, the most decorated basketball player of all time called POTUS a 'shitty' golfer.' The two are friends though and the call out is just a joke. But of course, with the fact that Jordan is arguably the world's greatest in basketball and Obama being the leader of one of the world's super powers, this will make it to news. It is also not surprising that Michael Jordan's words would eventually reach Barack Obama. What's surprising is the way the president of the United States responded on it. Michael Jordan totally got burned.
President Barack Obama got to talk about Michael Jordan during an interview with Wisconsin radio station WJMR and he just laughed everything off. However, he didn't end the interview without taking a swipe at Michael Jordan and his team Charlotte Bobcats.
"Michael wasn't very well informed about this, I think he might've just been trying to give Ahmad an extra ratings boost on his show," Obama continued," he said.
"But there is no doubt that Michael is a better golfer than I am. Of course if I was playing twice a day for the last 15 years, then that might not be the case
"He might want to spend more time thinking about the Bobcats - or the Hornets."
Michael Jordan called Barack Obama a shitty golfer during a sit-down with Ahmad Rashad.
"I've never played with Obama, but I would," Jordan said. "But naw, that's OK. I take him out. He's a hack. Man, it would be all day playing with him."
"Do you really want to say that to the president of the United States? That he's a hack?" Rashad asked.
"Yeah, don't worry about it. I never said he wasn't a great politician, I'm just saying he's a s----y golfer," Jordan said.
