An ex-football star from the same college Nick Carraway attended, Tom is described as "one of those men who reach such an acute limited excellence at twenty-one that everything afterwards savours of anti-climax". Now thirty, Tom has become enormously wealthy, yet remains physically powerful with his cruel body and arrogant eyes. Tom has a string of affairs despite being married to Daisy, and is involved with Myrtle Wilson throughout Nick's summer-long friendship with the Buchanans. An aggressive, short-tempered man, Tom abuses Daisy, Myrtle, George Wilson, and Gatsby, physically or emotionally.
