Tom Brady is looking to watch some history at the 2026 Winter Olympics on Thursday.
The seven-time Super Bowl champion is in attendance inside Milano Santagiulia Ice Hockey Arena for Thursday's women's hockey gold medal game between the United States and Canada, where he's taking the game in with a few legends in Billie Jean King and Mark Messier.
"Cheering on the incredible talent in Women's Hockey Gold Medal Game with some friends who know a thing or two about sports," Billie Jean King wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

Brady was also shown on NBC's broadcast during the second period in a suite box talking to Mike Eruzione, the captain of the USA men's hockey "Miracle on Ice" team that beat the Soviet Union on their way to an Olympic gold medal at the 1980 Lake Placid Winter Olympics.

Thursday's women's hockey game is the second known event that the former New England Patriot and Tampa Bay Buccaneer quarterback has been spotted at during the 2026 Winter Olympics, as he was at figure skating earlier in the Winter Games.
Brady is one of several "decorated athletes" who reached out to U.S. figure skating star Illia Malinin after the "Quad God" lost out on an Olympic medal in the men's singles event following a disappointing and disastrous free skate performance.
The United States is currently trailing 1-0 after the second period in Thursday's medal game, at the time of this writing. Team USA is looking to win its third Olympic gold medal in history, and second since the 2018 Winter Olympics in PyeongChang.
