Last Summer, when the Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers played Tom Brady on the golf course, the veteran had a clear edge over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB. The fifth edition of The Match, a golf exhibition event, is set to begin with four top-tier quarterbacks from the NFL. But Aaron Rodgers seems to have won the verbal banter already.
Tom Brady, Josh Allen & Patrick Mahomes are the other quarterbacks participating in the event. While Rodgers and Brady have a decent hold over the game, Mahomes and Allen are amateurs. It seems the Packers’ QB is trying to take advantage of the situation by weighing their abilities as a professional golfer.
