This year, the two were eammates against two of the best young quarterbacks in the league. As is customary during the leadup to this golfing match, there was some massive trash talking, mostly by the old school vets.

Rodgers and Brady both have made incredible clutch plays in the NFL, and they continued their streak in the golfing match, showing out against Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes.
Rodgers sank the putt to win the game, getting a good read from Tom Brady and confidence boosts from Charles Barkley and Trevor Immelman.

Tom Brady gets called cute by Charles Barkley
There were definitely some entertaining moments during this golf match. Rodges explained what went through his mind during the game winning shot.
“I felt really good about [the putt], to be honest,” Rodgers explained. “Tommy gave me a great read. I heard Trevor [Immelman] and Charles [Barkley] in my head telling me I was going to make it, and I felt good about the line when I hit it, I knew it was going in. It was a fun day.”
Mahomes and Allen gave the two veterans a good fight, especially with Mahomes coming in clutch with a few good putts. However, it wasn’t enough in the end.

Barkley does have a point though. Even at 44 years old, Brady looks exceptional.
