Tiger-Phil rematch involving Brady, Manning to air live on TNT
Another match between Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson - this time including NFL legends Tom Brady and Peyton Manning - will be broadcast live on TNT, its parent company, Turner Sports, confirmed Wednesday.
Manning and Brady will join Woods and Mickelson for a two-on-two competition called "The Match: Champions for Charity," with all donations and fundraising going toward COVID-19 relief.
Mickelson appeared to reveal the pairings on Wednesday night.
