Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe says he and President Donald Trump have drawn considerable attention to golf, but the Japanese leader is giving credit to their predecessors for pioneering golf diplomacy.

Abe says his grandfather, former prime minister Nobusuke Kishi, played with then-President Dwight Eisenhower in 1957 before their talks in Washington.

According to archival photos, Eisenhower won that match, shooting 74 to Kishi's 99. Their second golf game was planned for 1960 never happened because Kishi resigned amid intensifying protest over a revised security pact he signed.

Abe and Trump had their second golf game on Sunday. Abe says their scores are a secret.

He says when someone plays golf with another person twice, that person must be "your favorite guy."

President Donald Trump says Japan's leader enthusiastically sought a relationship.

Speaking at a banquet in Tokyo Monday, Trump recalled that after his 2016 victory he heard from numerous world leaders, including Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. Trump said he didn't know that it was customary to wait to meet other leaders until after you take office, and he told Abe he'd be happy to meet with him "any time."

The president said that when he tried to delay, Abe was already on a plane to New York, "so I had to see him." Trump said they had a great meeting and Abe "brought me the most beautiful golf club I've ever seen."

Trump says he enjoyed "every minute" of his visit to Japan — the first stop on a five-country Asian tour.

He exhorted dictator Kim Jong Un to cease weapons testing like the missiles he has fired over Japanese territory in recent weeks.

Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe agreed with Trump's assessment that "all options are on the table."
