Packers QB Rodgers Follows McIlroy-Spieth Pairing at PGA

SHEBOYGAN, Wis. — Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers took advantage of his day off from training camp to play golf fan.

The state's best-known athlete spent some time following the Rory McIlory-Jordan Spieth-Zach Johnson group Friday, but mostly took in the view of the PGA Championship from a hospitality tent.

"I only noticed him on the last couple of holes," the top-ranked McIlroy said. "Obviously, this is a big area (for football) with Green Bay. It was cool to see him out here."

Even though Rodgers is one of Spieth's favorite athletes, the world's second-ranked golfer didn't find out the Green Bay QB was a fan until afterward.
