What is Patrick Mahomes' golf handicap? Exploring Chiefs superstar's ability ahead of The Match

Patrick Mahomes is set to appear in "The Match" once again. The golf exhibition is set to take center stage in June in the city of Las Vegas, and Mahomes will have the chance to showcase his improved golf skills live on TNT.

The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback will be making his second appearance in "The Match". He appeared in the sixth edition in 2022. He played alongside Buffalo Bills signal-caller, Josh Allen, in an edition that saw the pair lose out to Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers.

He will be teaming up with teammate, Travis Kelce, this time around in a matchup against Golden State Warriors duo Steph Curry and Klay Thompson at the Wynn Golf Club on June 29.

Mahomes has a handicap of 7.7 on Golf.com. This ranks the quarterback as the second-best among football players who enjoy the sport. Comparatively, Aaron Rodgers has a handicap of 4.6, Tom Brady is at 8.1, and Josh Allen is at 9.0.

The Chiefs quarterback has steadily honed his golf skills over the years. His passion for the sport has also massively increased since he started playing in the NFL. According to Mahomes himself, he started getting involved in golf at a young age, visiting the course with his father.

There's evidently a significant improvement in the quarterback's golf game since he last appeared in "The Match."

Mahomes has a reputation for throwing the ball over long distances on the football field. This skill also translates brilliantly to the game of golf. The NFL MVP has the ability to send the ball far down the fairway, showcasing one of the best driving games among football players.

Mahomes has also taken time to improve his driving game this offseason with Hank Kuehne's assistance.

Patrick Mahomes' previous appearance on The Match

Patrick Mahomes' first appearance in 2022 didn't end as he would have wished. He and Josh Allen lost to veteran QBs Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers by just one hole. The matchup took place at the Wynn Golf Club.

He will be seeking to end on the winning side this time around against a team that has Steph Curry, who also previously lost in the event.

Curry teamed up with legendary quarterback, Peyton Manning, to face a team consisting of Phil Mickelson and Charles Barkley.

Both Mahomes and Curry will seek to change their tides on the golf exhibition show airing live on TNT.
