It’s hard to know whether Tiger Woods and Peyton Manning will mesh well together during “The Match II,” but they’re certainly unified on whether or not Charles Barkley can make bogey or better on the 18th hole of today’s event.
During the Bleacher Report pregame show, both Tom Brady and Phil Mickelson insisted that Barkley will get his competitive juices flowing and can at least post bogey.
Barkley will be one of the commentators on today’s broadcast, but then will play the final hole for charity.
Barkley is ready to prove all his golf haters wrong 🤡

Woods did not share the same enthusiasm about Barkley’s ability to at least post a 5 on the 444-yard final hole.
“I don’t care what tees he’s playing from,” Tiger said. “It’s not gonna happen.”
Tiger’s teammate, former Indianapolis Colts and Denver Broncos great Manning, also was quick to pile on.
“That charity better look for another place to get that money,” Manning said.
