This year’s “The Match” will occur at the Wynn Golf Club in Las Vegas on the 1st of June. The last time when Brady played against Rodgers at Montana, it was the Packers’ QB who came out victorious. However, this time, Brady and Rodgers will suit up against the NFL youngsters.
A few days ago, Brady got featured in a promotional video for the event where he took a shot at Mahomes and Rodgers for losing their star wide receivers Tyreek Hill and Davante Adams and vowed to dominate the golf course.
“Mike never left me. I’ll tell you that, but anyway, we’re on the same team, Aaron. Josh and Patrick aren’t gonna get any, So you ready?” Brady said.

As soon as the line-ups for the event were released, the quarterbacks trash-talked against each other. Similarly, Patrick Mahomes couldn’t resist his emotions and gave a befitting reply to the NFL GOAT.
“I think the reason we’re going to win is we’re going to be able to play the course a little differently than old Tom and old Aaron over there. They’re going to be playing it nice and easy. They might get us on a couple of par-3s and stuff like that, but whenever we can open it up and use the drivers, it’s going to be nice to be able to use our little wedges while they’re using their 6-irons. That’ll help us a bit.” Mahomes told in his statement.
