Rogers referred to the drought of wins for Rory McIlroy's TGL team - Boston Common Golf Club. The team failed to secure a single win throughout the season, and the golf influencer pointed out that it was where the TGL co-founder needed to prove himself.

Meanwhile, McIlroy was last seen at the 2025 PGA Championship, where he had a disappointing outcome as he finished in a tie for 47th. The two-time winner shot a total three-over-par score of 287 at Quail Hollow, a golf course he has dominated in the past.
