Aaron Rodgers may not have led the Green Bay Packers to victory over Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the NFC Championship Game, but after weeks of taunting by the elder quarterback, Rodgers got a small measure of personal revenge on Tuesday.
Rodgers and teammate Bryson DeChambeau defeated Brady and Phil Mickelson in their much-ballyhooed golf match on Tuesday, winning comfortably as Rodgers sank the clinching putt. Packers fans surely will see no solace in this result, particularly given the uncertainty about whether Rodgers will play for the team again this fall, but it is easy to imagine his personal competitive nature taking some amount of pride in the victory.
