A team of six-time Super Bowl winner Tom Brady and five-time major winner Phil Mickelson took on two-time Super Bowl champion Peyton Manning and 15-time major winner Tiger Woods in a charity golf challenge on Sunday.
'The Match: Champions for Charity' took place at Medalist Golf Club in Florida with the pair of Manning and Woods emerging winners, one up at the finish. It raised more than $20m for Covid-19 relief funds.
The best shot of the day was made by Brady, now quarterback with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 42-year-old holed a birdie from the fairway on the par five seventh. Just moments earlier, he had taken some stick about his performance from NBA legend Charles Barkley who was on commentary duty.

Brady later holed an eagle putt on the 11th to win the hole.
Phil sets it up and Brady sinks the putt for an eagle featuring a social distancing high five.💰

There was also some minor embarrassment for Brady when his pants split while picking his ball from the cup.
Pants wanted in on social distancing I guess... https://t.co/PJBPyFWowI
