Donald Trump spent time golfing over the weekend with his granddaughters, Kai and Chloe Trump, and Elon Musk — but a sand trap source tells Page Six that the president-elect is “ditching his golf game” when he returns to the Oval Office.

Says a little birdie: “Although many presidents have all played golf while in the White House, he’s telling all his golf buddies that he’s putting away his clubs to focus on the country.”

The clubhouse source added, “Between the security threats and the need to kick his administration into high gear, he says he doesn’t have enough time for golf the way he has had in the past.”

But the tee box tea spiller cautioned that Trump won’t give up the game completely.

“He’ll still hit the links on special occasions for a ‘working’ game,’” or play with major donors. “But his golf buddies — of which he has about 14 main players — will need to keep busy without him!”

A fairway insider added, “I don’t think it’s no golf ever. It’s no golf with his regular buddies and friends who are members at the club. There will be occasional games with Elon Musk or [Sen.] Lindsey Graham. But he’s focusing 24/7 on the country with history in mind.”

“Some of his buddies have just been told their weekly games are on hold until the country is back on track!” the source said.

Musk, 53, appeared on the golf course with Trump and his grandkids on Sunday at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Fla.

Graham told Trump, 78, after congratulating him on election night, “See you on the golf course!”

NBC News previously reported that after an apparent assassination attempt close to one of his courses on Sept. 15, Trump would lay off the links until after the election for security reasons.

The NBC report cited a source as saying federal agents could not ensure Trump’s safety on the course the way they’d like. But he was back at it after defeating Kamala Harris this month in the election.

The real estate mogul owns 18 golf properties internationally.

During his last term as president, he reportedly spent more than 260 days at his own golf properties — though it’s not clear whether he played during those visits.

He’s been known to play at once per week since leaving the White House, according to reports. Getty Images
