We’re seven days away from Masters week, where Jordan Spieth will undergo repeated questioning about his misadventures at the par-3 12th hole last year. Before that mania, however, Spieth visited the hole this week during a game with Tom Brady, UnderArmour CEO Kevin Plank, and Augusta member Jimmy Dunne.

In his first three years at the Masters, Spieth has shown he has the place figured out and should be a force there for years. But the 2016 implosion was an unexpected shock to the system. Spieth has said he’s played the course a couple times in the intervening year, getting through No. 12 without incident. Brady is just there for the hit-and-giggle and he’s played the course with other golf heavyweights, like Rory McIlroy, in prior years.

With just one week to go before the shots start to really count, Spieth playing with the greatest quarterback of all time is certainly one way to prep for his return to the biggest event in the game. Brady probably can’t offer any advice on how to play the course that Spieth knows so well, but perhaps he gave him pointers on outrageously expensive sleepwear for optimal performance next week.
