Boston Common Golf Stomps The Bay Golf Club in Thrilling TGL Matchup
In a dominant display, Boston Common Golf extended their unbeaten run to 2-0-0, outclassing The Bay Golf Club 9-1 at the SoFi Center. The victory marked another emphatic win for Keegan Bradley's team, as they solidified their position as the top-seeded squad in TGL Season 2.
Rory McIlroy and Michael Thorbjornsen were instrumental in Boston's convincing victory, with both players contributing to a near-flawless performance by the home side. McIlroy showcased his impressive driving skills by smashing a record-breaking 358-yard drive on Storrowed, while Thorbjornsen continued his remarkable start with four putts from outside 10 feet on his debut.
The 24-year-old McIlroy delivered again on Monday, draining a 14-footer for birdie at the seventh and calmly sinking a pressure-packed six-footer to prevent a two-point swing. Boston's momentum was never disrupted as they maintained their lead throughout the match, eventually closing out the contest with a dominant stretch of golf.
The Bay Golf Club, meanwhile, faces an uphill climb toward the postseason after suffering consecutive defeats. The loss marked a significant blow to Shane Lowry's hopes of making a deep run in the TGL playoffs.
Next on the schedule for Boston Common Golf is their matchup against Atlanta Drive on February 23 (10pm start UK time), while McIlroy and his teammates will look to continue their winning ways against the unbeaten Atlanta squad on the same night.
