The NBA legend and Dream Team champion Charles Barkley is not used to losing. However, this time the 4x NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers got the better of him. Both played against each other at the much-awaited celebrity golf event, American Century Championship. On a bet between Barkley and Rodgers, the former saw his bank-breaking a $25,000 check for a noble cause.

The bet was simple, yet challenging for Charles to have his way around. Moreover, Aaron Rodgers is in his 18th year of golfing at the American Century Championship. Nevertheless, he considers himself to be a better player than before, and it is evident in his leaderboard standings.

Rodgers made a bet with Barkley that if Barkley finished ahead of him, the 38-year-old QB would let him cut off his man bun. But, conversely, Barkley losing the bet made him donate to Rodgers’ charity, North Valley Community Foundation.

In addition, on 10th July, Rodgers finished in 9th place with 50 points to his name. On the other hand, Charles Barkley finished in 74th place with minus-26 points, but it was his best-ever finish in the championship.
