Rory McIlroy-led TGL side Boston Common Golf is making its way into NASCAR. Roush-Fenway Keselowski Racing driver Ryan Preece is gearing up for the 2025 All-Star Race weekend in North Wilkesboro, and the 34-year-old NASCAR Cup Series driver will showcase Boston Common Golf's branding on his No. 60 Ford Mustang.
NASCAR Insider and Sports Business Journal analyst Josh Carpenter shared the news on X(formerly Twitter) and wrote:
"@commongolf will be on Ryan Preece's car for NASCAR's All-Star festivities this weekend. Preece drives for @RFKracing, which is partially owned by Fenway Sports Group."
The Tweet also teased an image of Ryan Preece's custom livery designed for the event, featuring the frog logo associated with the TGL outfit. Both RFK Racing and Boston Common Golf are owned by the Fenway Sports Group, which paved the way for this cross-sport collaboration.
Preece has competed in NASCAR's top-tier series since 2015. He earned his place in the All-Star race field via the fan vote and will be among the 20 drivers competing at the North Wilkesboro Speedway.
The All-Star Race is scheduled for May 18 at the North Wilkesboro Speedway. This event returns to the .625-mile short track for the second consecutive year after its 2023 revival, after nearly three decades of absence.
Boston Common Golf is one of the teams competing in TGL, the tech-focused, team-based golf league founded by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy. Apart from McIlroy, Boston Common Golf also features big names like Keegan Bradley, Adam Scott, and Hideki Matsuyama. Tyrrell Hatton was initially part of the team before Matsuyama, but was replaced by the latter after joining LIV Golf last year. With that, let's look at the details of TGL's inaugural season.
