The event is strictly for charity purposes, including donations made to Feeding America. “The Match” will take place at Moonlight Basin. Mickelson is a regular in the event, having also paired with Brady last year in Hobe Sound, Florida where the duo lost to Tiger Woods and Peyton Manning. TB12 is no stranger to partnering up with lefty, so this should be interesting.
As for DeChambeau, he's one of the more interesting figures in the PGA. The 27-year-old has quickly risen to stardom, having won the US Open in 2020 by six shots. This will be his first time in “The Match”. He is currently ranked fourth in the world.

Rodgers is a respectable golfer too, having finished in 16th place in a celebrity golf tournament in January of last year. This is the debut for Rodgers and DeChambeau together.
Get ready. The fourth annual “The Match” is going to be good. Two of the world's greatest golfers and two rivals on the gridiron going toe to toe.
