Former President Barack Obama has released his NCAA Basketball bracket ahead of the first round of March Madness beginning Tuesday. 

On Tuesday, the 44th President continued his yearly tradition of revealing his picks to be crowned the men's and women's national champions. 

The 62-year-old played it safe with his men's bracket, opting for just a few upsets in the first round. 

In the later rounds, Obama stuck to the tried-and-tested successful programs with reigning champions UConn, Baylor, Kentucky and Purdue clinching his Final Four spots. 

He ultimately plumped for UConn to go back-to-back, defeating Kentucky in the final.
