Michael Jordan used to host the Michael Jordan Celebratory Invitational to raise funds for a charity Jordan supported. This tournament ran from 2001-2014.
In 2006, Brady would receive his invite. Jordan is a golf fanatic as several clips from ‘The Last Dance’ showed his fondness for the game.
As a result, Brady had the perfect golfing partner to take him through the tournament. Last year, Brady posted a throwback video about a post-match interview with CBS Boston News reporter Michael Hurley.
