“The Match” is returning this summer.
On Monday, Tom Brady announced that he and three other NFL quarterbacks will be participating in the team event, which has become an annual summer tradition. The other quarterbacks are Aaron Rodgers, Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes.
In the past, Tom Brady has teamed up with professional golfer Phil Mickelson in these events. In previous years, the Brady-Mickelson team has faced off against Peyton Manning and Tiger Woods and a Rodgers-Bryson DeChambeau pairing.
This time, it’s just quarterbacks.

Brady and Rodgers will team up to take on Allen and Mahomes. “The Match” will air on TNT on June 1. The start time is set for 6:30 p.m. ET.
“The Match” started in 2020 as a way to gradually bring sports back into the homes of fans when all other leagues were shut down. Now, it’s become a popular summer event for TNT to air.
