Caitlin Clark was already warned about Tom Brady by Jordan Spieth | golf | Sport

WNBA sensation Caitlin Clark has been tipped off about Tom Brady’s intensely competitive nature as she prepares to compete in the RSM Classic Pro-Am this week. The event is another golf challenge for the basketball star, who recently made waves at the Annika Pro-Am in Florida.

But this time, Clark will face one of the greatest sports icons of all time and someone known for his unmatched ambition. Brady, 47, a seven-time Super Bowl champion and current Fox Sports NFL commentator, was seen taking shots with Ludvig Aberg, the No. 5 golfer in the world.

Golf greats Jordan Spieth and Keegan Bradley have previously commented on Brady’s winning mentality, giving Clark an idea of ​​what he could be facing if he meets the former New England Patriots star on the course.

As Clark continues his journey to become a veteran golfer, he may first have to contend with Brady’s fierce desire to win. Former Masters champion Spieth shared a story about once playing a round with the legendary point guard, revealing that his hopes for a relaxed game and a leisurely lunch didn’t quite come true.

Spieth described a match against Brady at Augusta National where the match was tied going into the 18th hole, but the PGA Tour star came out on top. But the former Tampa Bay Buccaneers player didn’t take the loss well.

During a casual lunch at Augusta, Spieth told famed sports commentator Dan Patrick an amusing story about Brady’s intense competitiveness. “You were supposed to go to Augusta and have lunch and hang out, but he didn’t say a word to me for like an hour and a half,” Spieth said. “I feel like I’m very, very competitive. He’s the most competitive person I’ve ever met.”

Bradley, an avid Brady fan who encountered the NFL icon on a vacation trip to the Bahamas, vividly described his humbling experience on the golf course with Brady on GOLF’s Subpar podcast. “I win the first hole. I say, ‘TB, I’ll give you the buyout if you want,'” Bradley said.

“I start chirping. Then he runs and plays the next 14 holes in four holes. He beats me six and five. Really good. I couldn’t believe it. Those competitive vibes kicked in and smoked me.”

Rising sensation Clark, known for his passion for golf, teamed up with Zach Johnson for a remarkable tour in Florida and thrilled fans with his performance. After showing off his skills in the blazing Florida sun, he was quizzed about his ultimate dream of golfing a foursome.

For his dream team, he selected world No. 1 Pro-Am player Nelly Korda and Golden State Warriors legend Stephen Curry.

For the final point, he cheekily suggested: “Any professional golfer.

“So I can get free lessons. I should take advantage of what you can.”

But if he crosses paths with Brady at the event, his fierce competitive spirit could land him a spot on Clark’s ideal roster.
