WASHINGTON, Oct. 31 (UPI) -- Former NBA star Michael Jordan called the president out on his golf game, saying he is better in the White House than on the green.

In an interview with Ahmad Rashad on the Back 9 Network, Jordan was asked who he would like to face on the golf course, and he said President Barack Obama but possibly because he would be an easy opponent. "I never played with Obama but I would," he said. "But no, it's OK I'd take him out. He's a hack. It'd be all day playing with him."

Jordan still believes he is good at his job though.

"I never said he wasn't a great politician," Jordan said. "I'm just saying he's a [expletive] golfer."
