Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers' heartwarming interaction at celebrity golf event goes viral

   

Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers is making waves at a celebrity golf tournament — and it has nothing to do with his score.

Rodgers, one of the NFL's most active golf enthusiasts, recently attended the 2025 American Century Championship, a three-day celebrity tournament featuring some of the biggest stars in sports — but it was a heartwarming moment with a young fan that caught the attention of many.

Aaron Rodgers: 'I'm pretty sure this will be my last season'

In a video originally posted on Instagram by user Weslysniped, Rodgers invited a young child onto the golf course to take a picture with him — a moment that clearly meant the world to the young fan, evident from his ear-to-ear grin (courtesy of itsbree33 on X).

Not all the headlines were as positive from Rodgers’ recent attendance at the American Century Championship — as his interaction with a potential "autograph hound" went viral for all the wrong and hilarious reasons.

The polar-opposite narratives painted by these two interactions reflect Rodgers’ polarizing reception in Pittsburgh — but make no mistake, the four-time MVP is blocking out the noise and gearing up to lead a loaded Steelers roster in 2025.
