Tom Brady is targeting Pebble Beach Pro-Am to show his golf skills. The star quarterback has been busy since his retirement from the league and has honed his other skills. Mainly we have seen him investing in other sporting ventures, such as the Las Vegas Raiders in the NFL and Birmingham City in soccer. But now he is ready to get back on the field in a different sport.
Tom Brady posted pictures of himself practising his golf swing with his signature "LFG" cry. He also confirmed that he wants to be on the course when Pebble Beach Pro-Am rolls around.
Can Tom Brady become the latest superstar to switch sports by choosing golf beginning at the Pebble Beach Pro-Am?
Since the Pebble Beach Pro-Am allows amateurs to play with professionals, Tom Brady is targeting that route to show his golfing prowess. But given how successful he was as an NFL quarterback, it is not out of the realms of possibility to imagine him becoming successful at golf.
Other players in different sports have changed their field of vocation and have become moderately successful. One example we have right now is former soccer goalkeeper Petr Cech. He represented Chelsea and Arsenal, among other teams, with distinction. Now, he has transitioned to becoming a professional ice hockey goaltender in the UK.
Staying with soccer, Italian soccer great Paolo Maldini became a professional tennis player. Star athelete Usain Bolt also tried his hand at becoming a professional soccer player. Of course, in the NFL we have had players like Deion Sanders who have played two different sports, also featuring in baseball.
Tom Brady likely will not go down that route. For one, he has different investments in his portfolio to tend to. Secondly, he still has a $375 million deal on the table from FOX if he wants to get into broadcasting. He has a part on a podcast even now and that is somewhere he is spending time as well.
But given how hard he is training for the Pebble Beach Pro-Am, he could end up doing quite well in the golf tournament. If he does do so, there is no one who has seen his competitive edge who will bet against him succeeding if he changed sports. We will be keeping an eye out for whatever happens, of course, as the former seven-time Super Bowl champion exercises his shoulders with a golf club instead of a football.
