Tiger Woods and Peyton Manning will take on Phil Mickelson and Tom Brady in “The Match: Champions for Charity,” a golf match that will raise funds for COVID-19 relief efforts (match date to be determined).
Woods and Manning are considered the betting favorites but that hasn’t stopped Brady from talking smack on social media.
Never had much of a hard time beating the colts or a tiger, don’t see this time being much different… https://t.co/dNP3rphybt pic.twitter.com/jBXeg3UGXs

This is a change of course from Brady, who tweeted a backhanded compliment for Manning’s golf game in February: “Peyton is the better golfer right now,” the QB said. “He’s had much more practice these past few years.”
Manning does not have a Twitter account so he couldn’t defend himself on social media. The Broncos’ came to his defense with a great tweet:
Was a little tougher when Peyton came to our side … 😉 https://t.co/Ltdx9kg9pr

Manning beat Brady in two AFC Championship Games with Denver.
In April, Brady tweeted that he’s been waiting four years for a rematch after losing the 2015 AFC title game 20-18 to Manning and the Broncos.
The rematch will take place on the golf course and it’ll be must-watch TV.
