Michael Douglas enjoys playing golf but it seems like he does not think he is good at it. The actor made an appearance on 'Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon' and where he spoke about playing golf with some of his friends even though he requires a lot of practice. 

Golf happened to be an interest that he shares with the host, Jimmy Fallon. Unlike Douglas, Fallon has had experience playing golf and was interested in enjoying a game alongside Douglas himself. However, one interesting personality that Douglas has played golf with is President Donald Trump.

Fallon was curious to know how the president performs on the golf course. Douglas remarked he played fairly well. "He is pretty good but not quite good as he thinks he is," he said. Fallon seemed to agree with the comment as he remarked, "That sounds about right". 

Douglas also shared details of his birthday which he shares with his wife, Catherine Zeta-Jones. The pair celebrates their birthday on September 25. Douglas stated that Jones was not a big fan of having their birthdays fall on the same day. 

"My wife and I have the same birthday and she is not too happy about it," he said. "She wants her own day." Despite this, Jones had the best time and took to Instagram to share it with her fans. “Happy Birthday to me, Happy Birthday to me, Happy Birthday to me, my husband Michael Douglas! and anyone else who was conceived around Christmas or New Years, Happy birthday to all," she wrote. 

Douglas also wished his wife on social media as he wrote, "Happy Birthday my darling! I love you so much and I cannot wait to celebrate our special day together!” The pair decided to spend their birthdays playing some golf. 

Douglas even took to social media to document their special day as he shared the picture of them golfing along with the caption, “Golfing with my [heart emjoi] on the big birthday!” Jones also took to Instagram and shared a series of videos where the two seemed to enjoy a nice time playing golf. Looks like Douglas has found a perfect golf partner and it is not Trump.
