Eli Manning has hit the ground running in retirement, barely missing a beat just a week removed from announcing that his 16-year career with the New York Giants had come to an end.
On Saturday, Manning was in Miami to receive the Bart Starr Award, which he accepted with a remarkably impressive speech, and later this week he’ll jet off to California to compete in the 2020 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am.
Manning highlights a celebrity field that includes brother Peyton Manning, Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald, Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan, NHL legend Wayne Gretzky, musicians Toby Keith, Huey Lewis and Macklemore, actor Bill Murray and many more.
Manning has been golfing for quite some time now and it was even something he bonded with wide receiver Golden Tate over. In fact, Manning was listed among the Top 10 Best NFL Golfers in 2013.
Eli has an index of 9.3, which is six strokes higher than brother Peyton.
The 2020 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am will be held from February 6 through February 9 and will be aired on the GOLF channel and CBS.
