Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers picked up a trophy at Pebble Beach on Sunday.
"It's really significant. It's always been on my bucket list," Rodgers said."I played in Tahoe for 18 years and never sniffed higher than like eighth.
"But I felt good about the partnership this week. Ben's such a great guy, I knew we were going to have fun … Then we put together a couple good rounds. The first two, today especially the last 10 holes, I was in my pocket and my partner picked it up."Rodgers said before Monday he hadn't touched a club since before the NFL season started, too.
"I had no confidence coming in," Rodgers said."I shot 86 at Sherwood on Monday and that was with a couple balls in my pocket on some holes. And I played at Cypress [Point Club] on Tuesday with a good friend of mine … If you would have seen that you wouldn't have expected anything this week. But something clicked in when I went to [Spyglass Hill]. Had a good round at Monterey Peninsula on Friday. Then we battled the wind the last couple days.
After a lengthy delay on Saturday due to weather, the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am is set for a Monday finish. Play was halted on Saturday after strong winds hit the course, especially the holes along the Pacific Ocean, which delayed Sunday’s start significantly. The winds got so bad on Saturday that Keith Mitchell said he had to hit an 8-iron on the short 106-yard par-3 seventh. It was still really bad on Sunday, too.
