Recently, Tampa Bay Buccaneers newcomer Tom Brady entered a charity golf tournament. Aside from the quarterback, long-time rival Peyton Manning and golf legends Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson took part as well. Suffice to say, Brady had a whale of a time and engaged in plenty on banter on the course.

He managed to hold his own against the two professionals, albeit briefly. In the end though, this tournament was purely for charity and a chance for everyone to unwind and have fun. Clearly, Tom Brady had plenty of it while hitting golf balls.

I learned a few lessons from this past weekend’s golf tournament with @philmickelson @tigerwoods and #Peyton…I had a lot of fun and grateful to be part of an event that raised a lot of money for Covid relief: 1. Amazing what happens when groups of people come together for the common good. 2. Peyton is still as clutch as ever. 💯 3. I did not escape the inclement weather…heavy stuff…ALL DAY. 4. I shouldn’t wear the same pants to golf that I wear to church. 🤬 5. As great as @philmickelson is as a golfer, he is a better man, coach and teammate and potentially has the best calves on the PGA Tour. 6. I really enjoy golf…at halftime of football games we get checked for concussions, in golf, you get refreshments. 7. It was nice to be the young guy again. 👍🏼 8. @tigerwoods was a great host and champion, and I was especially thankful he missed that putt on the 7th hole…had he made it, I would have just went home. 😂 9. I’m sticking to my day job 🏈
