Watch: Florida governor Ron DeSantis says his 3-year-old son’s swing is better than his

Florida governor Ron DeSantis has plenty to worry about.

As the state’s economy tries to emerge from the devastation of the coronavirus pandemic, images of beaches littered with dead fish could threaten to keep visitors from flocking to seaside communities this summer.

He’s also battling the CDC on cruise line restrictions.

But one thing the governor doesn’t have to worry about is his 3-year-old son’s golf game.

Mason DeSantis was highlighted on a recent Fox & Friends segment, with his dad touting a swing that’s already better than his own.

DeSantis told the show’s hosts that Mason is “obsessed” with the game.

“I think he’s got a great future if that’s what he wants to do,” DeSantis said. “I think with golf, if you start young, it really does help because it builds the muscle memory.”

Golf has been a part of the DeSantis family since it started — the governor let it slip on the show that he met his wife Casey while the two were in adjacent stalls at a driving range.
