The event will feature four NFL quarterbacks who will play in a live televised competition.

Four well-known NFL quarterbacks will participate in Turner Sports’ latest installment of Capital One’s The Match, a live golf event series that will be held at Wynn Las Vegas on June 1. Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers will pair up to play against Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen in a 12-hole competition.

This is the first time the four NFL stars have been on the golf course together for this event. Brady has appeared three times in Capital One’s The Match, while Allen and Mahomes will be making their debut this year.

The players will have direct communication during the entire event with broadcast commentators as well as other competitors through an open mic system.

The competition will be televised and aired live from the Wynn Golf Club on TNT beginning at 6:30pm on June 1. Turner Sports has televised the past five installments of the event.

The golf series has also been utilized as a platform for charitable giving. Throughout its run, the event series has raised almost $33m for a variety of charities and has donated close to 17 million meals to Feeding America.

Turner Sports is a division of Warner Bros. Discovery and delivers sports content across various media platforms. The company has partnered with the NBA, Major League Baseball, the NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Championship, the National Hockey League.

The United States Soccer Federation will begin its partnership with Turner Sports in 2023.

Wynn Las Vegas is the home of the only golf course located on the Vegas Strip. Its Wynn Golf Club hosted Capital One’s The Match last November.
