Twitter is raking Tom Brady over the coals over how bad he is at golf.
Maybe Tom Brady should have stayed in New England?
Ever since leaving the Northeast for the Florida Gulf Coast, things have gotten stranger by the day for the future Pro Football Hall of Fame quarterback. From getting kicked out of a park, to going into Byron Leftwich’s next door neighbor’s house instead of his new offensive coordinator’s, Brady is embodying Florida Man this offseason. It only got worse on the golf course.
During the airing of “The Match” on Sunday, the world saw how bad the GOAT is at the game of golf. He may be the greatest quarterback in NFL history and he may have gotten drafted out of high school as a catcher by the then-Montreal Expos, but he’s not making the PGA Tour anytime soon. Twitter is absolutely letting him have it in a televised event that is for a good cause.
We have no idea where the ball is going, what club he’ll use and how his partner Phil Mickelson feels about this. Mickelson thought he was getting the GOAT and now he’s getting shafted by the other pairing of Tiger Woods and Peyton Manning. Unless he’s got the golfing equivalent of a 28-3 comeback in his back pocket, this won’t end well for Brady in the Floridian rain on Sunday.
Twitter is not letting Tom Brady hear the end of it with his putrid golf game.
I'm liking this Florida @TomBrady right now. #TNT

Every famous person in America is promising money to charity if Tom Brady stops sucking at golf. This is an amazing event.

I’ve always felt like Tom Brady and I had a lot in common, but after watching his golf game, I actually think we might have been separated at birth. #TheMatch

Anyone who has ever played golf knows exactly how Tom Brady feels right now. Except, he’s doing it on national TV in a rainstorm with Tiger and Phil in his group. #TheMatch2

Everyone tweeting about @TomBrady struggling right now should be aware he will likely take Twitter notes like Michael Jordan on a good day and use this fire to win multiple Senior Tour championships.

Tom Brady must've been reading those Twitter comments when he was on his phone driving that cart earlier...

Incredible shot! #TheMatch
Give me the TV show where Tom Brady travels the sports world sucking at everything that isn't football. Bowling a 73, double faulting entire games away, unable to swim without floaties, etc.

Tom Brady desperately needs that drink cart to show up.

Poor Tom Brady. If he wants back in to this game of golf, he’s gonna have to pick the ball up and throw it #TheMatch

I’ll donate 100k through the @bkcharityfund if @TomBrady makes a par on the front 9 #TheMatch #TNT

Tom Brady doesn’t like Peyton Manning’s Smokey head cover and proceeds to drop it on the ground to step on it.

So whether he’s losing golf balls every hole or splitting his pants, Brady is having an overall rough go of it on the links. But let’s not kid ourselves here. The guy is insanely competitive and may rattle off nine straight birdies on the back-nine to sink Manning and Woods in one of the greatest golf matches of all time. Did Mickelson wager on a second-half comeback, though?
See, Brady is just like all of us in that our golf game is nowhere as good as we say it is.
