Washington(CNN) President Donald Trump's frequent visits to his golf courses have furthered his political agenda, providing him key face time to lobby lawmakers, the White House claimed on Tuesday.
Trump has visited his golf courses 92 times as president, golfing with lawmakers at least seven of those times, according to CNN's latest count.
Pressed by reporters about what work Trump had accomplished on the links, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said: "It would certainly be developing deeper and better relationships with members of Congress, in which those relationships have helped push forward the President's agenda."
Sanders specifically mentioned tax reform as an example of legislative success assisted by time on the course.

White House officials in the past have said immigration, tax reform, government funding and health care have all been topics discussed with lawmakers at the golf course.
Trump has spent nearly one-third of his time in office this year at one of the properties that either bear his name or that his family company owns, according to CNN's latest count.
