Patrick Rodgers is one of the most accomplished college players of all time. The former Stanford star won 11 times, tying Tiger Woods’ collegiate record. Despite his early success, the 33-year-old has yet to win in more than 300 PGA TOUR starts. In December 2025, Rodgers wrote a letter about his journey and how he’s found peace through adversity with his family. The letter explains the veteran’s story in his own words.
