Despite frequently criticising Barack Obama for playing golf while he was president, Donald Trump is fast outpacing his predecessor, playing golf for the 16th time since his inauguration.

Launching himself into the sport from the beginning of his presidency, it looks like President Trump will end up playing far more games of golf in his first term than Barack Obama, who waited until April 26, 2009 for his first game.

Over at least five years on Twitter, Mr Trump repeatedly suggested President Obama was lazy for spending so much time playing golf.
