The others were Castle Pines and Cherry Hills in Colorado (remember, he played for the Denver Broncos) and Crooked Stick near Indianapolis (where he played for the Colts before going to Denver). Castle Pines and Cherry Hills are the courses Manning is currently registered to through his USGA handicap.
That’s right, Manning is a member at one of the most famous and exclusive clubs in the world. It was first reported in November 2016 that he was invited, and at the time it was believed to be at least the fourth club he belonged to.
Luckily, Manning and Brady have some game themselves. Manning has a 6.4 handicap index and Brady’s is 8.1. But playing at their home courses with their friends is completely different than doing so with two guys who own 20 career major titles.
In retirement, Manning plunged himself into work for his Peyback Foundation and continued appearing on TV as a pitchman. In 2019, he launched the Emmy-nominated docuseries Peyton's Places, featuring his interviews with other prominent players and coaches about football's history and cultural impact.
He enjoys his Sweetens Cove with an ice cube or two. The bourbon is on the menu at Manning’s one-of-a-kind “watering hole” Saloon 16, which opened in August inside the new Graduate Hotel in Knoxville.
Eaves initially spent at least 15 minutes nosing, tasting and writing extensive notes on each of the 100 barrels. “ (It’s) very rare to have someone with her skill and stature to do that deep dive of craftsmanship,” Manning said. “And so far, the reviews have really met our expectations.”.

Sweetens Cove Golf Club has blown up over the last couple of years. The 9-hole course in South Pittsburg, Tenn., is fun, affordable and brilliantly designed, and in May 2019 the club announced five new co-owner partners. Manning, who starred at the University of Tennessee just a couple of hours down the road, was one of them.
The last time you might have seen Manning play golf on TV (or maybe the only time?) was back in February at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. Manning teamed up with Luke Donald.
At Isidore Newman High School, Manning led the football team to a 34-5 record, throwing for more than 7,000 yards, and was largely viewed as the nation's No. 1 football recruit in his senior season. Manning enrolled at the University of Tennessee in 1994, where his dominance continued.
Joining the NFL's Indianapolis Colts. In 1998, the Indianapolis Colts selected Manning with the first overall pick in the NFL draft. For a franchise saddled with a recent record of hard luck and plenty of losses, Manning was quickly embraced as a savior. His rookie year, however, was far from perfect.
Eli Manning. Eli Manning won two Super Bowls as a quarterback for the New York Giants. He is the brother of former NFL quarterback Peyton Manning and the son of former NFL QB Archie Manning. (1981–)
After winning his first MVP award in 2003, Manning went on to capture the award four more times (2004, 2008, 2009 and 2013), becoming the first NFL player ever to achieve that distinction. In addition, he became the fastest player to compile 50,000 career yards and 4,000 completions.
However, on September 8, 2011, his streak of 227 consecutive starts ended when he underwent a spinal fusion to repair a damaged nerve in his neck that had weakened his throwing arm.
Praised for his comedic timing, he hosted Saturday Night Live and appeared in several funny television commercials for Sprint, MasterCard and Gatorade, among other brands.

Wife, Children and Charity Work. Manning married his college sweetheart, Abby McGrew, in April 2008. They have three daughters and a son together.

Eli Manning won two Super Bowls as a quarterback for the New York Giants. He is the brother of former NFL quarterback Peyton Manning and the son of former NFL QB Archie Manning.
The Giants made the playoffs in 2005 and 2006, and they finished 2007 with a record of 10-6. Manning led the team through the playoffs that year and into the Super Bowl, where they were huge underdogs to the undefeated New England Patriots. The Giants won the game, 17-14, and Manning was named the game's MVP. He completed 19 of 34 passes for 255 yards (152 of which came in the decisive fourth quarter) and threw two touchdown passes.
