Tom Brady plays in the NFL, but he is as much interested in golf. Brady loves the sport and has massively improved his golf game over the years. Talking about the golf world, The Match 5: Brooks Koepka vs Bryson DeChambeau is right around the corner, and Brady is involved in it too – not on the golf course, but off of it.

The winningest player in the league has also prior experience playing in ‘The Match,’ a golf event that is frequently held to test the competitive juices of cross-sport athletes, and also to benefit charity.
