Green Bay Packers Quarterback Aaron Rodgers said he checked off an item on the “bucket list” Sunday when he and pro golfer Ben Silverman won the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, but there was one team that wasn’t too happy about the downside of Rodgers ahead of the tournament.
Keith Mitchell, winner of the PGA Tour, who teamed up with Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, wasn’t too happy with Rodgers’ handicap of 10, despite his insistence that he hasn’t played much golf since the start of training camp last offseason. pass.
“I think Josh and I won,” Mitchell said after the tournament. “Aaron Rogers doesn’t count. His disability was crap. I haven’t looked. I think we were at 18, we could have been up there, but if we finished second behind Aaron, I think we won the trophy.”

But Rodgers admitted he wasn’t very confident going into the tournament.
“I shot 86 at Sherwood on Monday and that was with a couple balls in my pocket on a few holes. And I played at Cypress on Tuesday with a good friend of mine, Neal ElAttrache. My caddy was with me too. If I could I’ve seen you didn’t expect nothing this week. But something clicked when I went to Spy. I had a good round in the Monterey Peninsula on Friday. Then we battled against the wind the last few days.”

Despite the criticism, Rodgers says he’ll finally enjoy seeing his name on the Wall of Champions.
“This is a big deal for me. I’m not going to sugarcoat it. It’s a great week, just, spending time with Ben. But winning is the sweetest thing.”
