Trump, Abe play golf with professional golfer Matsuyama
Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and US President Donald Trump teed off with Japanese professional golfer Hideki Matsuyama on Sunday as the US President kicked off a five-nation Asia tour.
The game on the first day of Trump's visit in Japan took place at the Kasumigaseki Country Club in Kawagoe near Tokyo with the world number four golfer.
Matsuyama told Japanese media earlier last month that he felt undeserving when he was contacted but accepted the surprise request to tee off with the two world leaders as it was a "once-in-a-lifetime" opportunity.
Trump, an avid golfer and owner of several courses around the world, has previously played rounds with Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy and women's world No. 3 Lexi Thompson.
