Backstreet Boys Propose a Five-on-Five Golf Face-off Against NSYNC
The music industry is buzzing with excitement as the Backstreet Boys and NSYNC are set to face off in a unique challenge - the "Boy Band Mania Golf Tournament". This five-on-five golf competition was proposed by members of both iconic boy bands during a round at Pebble Beach, California[1][2].
The tournament, announced by Brian Littrell and Nick Carter on August 8-9, 2025, promises to be a spectacle of must-see entertainment[1][2][5]. Producers behind events like "The Match" have expressed interest in staging the competition in Las Vegas, leveraging the star power of both groups and the growing excitement among fans[1].
Brian Littrell, known as the Backstreet Boys' resident golf aficionado, plays off a 6.8 handicap[1]. On the other side, Justin Timberlake, a member of NSYNC, is noted to be the best golfer with a single-digit handicap[1][2]. This sets the stage for a highly competitive match.
However, the status of Justin Timberlake's participation in the proposed golf match with NSYNC is uncertain. Timberlake, who recently wrapped up his world tour, revealed he has been privately managing Lyme disease[6][7]. His diagnosis has impacted his performances and day-to-day life[6][7]. In a heartfelt Instagram post, Timberlake shared the news of his Lyme disease diagnosis, which resonated with many fans[8].
Nick Carter, another member of the Backstreet Boys, might need assistance during the golf match, given his 19-handicap[1]. If the match takes place, it could be the most entertaining face-off since the TRL days.
As of early August 2025, the Boy Band Mania Golf Tournament is still in the planning and negotiation phase rather than fully confirmed or scheduled[1][3]. We await a response from Justin Timberlake and the other members of NSYNC regarding the golf challenge.
