Now I was going to get this TV but really after comparing it side by side to the Sony 90 series, yes the brightness is low. Other folks have stated the same. From Techradar
The Samsung Q60T QLED occupies an important spot in Samsung's TV 2020 lineup, being the cheapest of the brand's QLED sets – and therefore, effectively, the worst best Samsung TV has released this year. It's great value, but that inevitably comes with compromises, with the Q60T's picture suffering from low brightness, mild motion blur, and dull HDR objects.
Looks like Samsung wanted to save costs by coming out with a new model inferior to older model. They have been doing that lately.
But that draw necessarily comes with drawbacks. You're getting a drop in processing power compared to last year's Q60R, with a Quantum Processor Lite chip instead of the Quantum Processor 4K used in most QLED models. Edge lighting, too – a lighting system that illuminates the picture from the sides rather than behind the panel – is a cheap way to light up a set's images, but means there are issues with consistency of brightness, off-axis viewing, and the strength of HDR objects.
Ugly review here on tomsguide. The bigger the set the bigger the issues you will notice

Also depends what you use to watch sports - if it's streaming devices I don't think it matters either.
