Tom Brady is a solid golfer, as he's demonstrated in the charity event "The Match," twice since 2020, teaming up with Phil Mickelson.

But even while playing a leisurely round on the links, Brady is committed to winning.

Three-time major winner Jordan Spieth said that he found out the hard way just how seriously Brady takes his game.

Speaking with "The Dan Patrick Show" in 2019, Spieth said that he once played a round with Brady at Augusta National, an evening that ended with Brady icing him out for a bit after losing the lead on the final hole.

"We had a two-on-two match," Spieth said. "I ended up birdieing the 18th. He had a stroke on the 18th. I hit it in there to a few feet, and he drove it up almost too close to the green, tried to hit a flop shot, and left it in the bunker. The match was tied, so I won - he made bogey, I made birdie for a two-shot flip on the last."

Spieth said that Brady didn't seem interested in any post-round pleasantries, despite enjoying one of the most exclusive golf clubs in the world.

"You're supposed to go in at Augusta and, you know, have lunch and hang out," Spieth said.

"He didn't say a word to me for like an hour and a half. I mean, the most competitive … I feel like I am very, very competitive, and he is the most competitive human being I've ever met. This is like a fun round."

Spieth said Brady was chirping a bit during the round and that the competitiveness went both ways.

"When they started making their comeback on the back nine, he was talkative," Spieth said. "I think when I hit the three-footer, I was looking at him as I putted it. It was one of those. I think that probably didn't help."

Brady might not have won his round against Spieth, but if it's any consolation, Spieth likely wouldn't be able to best him on a football field.
