Rory McIlroy announced that his TGL team has a new member.

The Northern Irishman tabbed Michael Thorbjornsen to join Boston Common Golf in the tech-infused indoor golf league.

“We have a new member of the team who I practiced with this morning, Michael Thorbjornsen,” McIlroy said on The Shotgun Start.

“I am breaking some news! So we have some fresh blood. I think that could make the difference.”

When asked why he felt the need to add Thorbjornsen, McIlroy noted that Hideki Matsuyama and Adam Scott are “world travelers.”

“Hideki will be in Japan and Adam will be in Australia for the first game we play on Jan. 2 (versus Los Angeles Golf Club),” McIlroy said. “So Michael has come in and it’s going to be Michael, Keegan (Bradley) and myself. We are feeling pretty good!”

Thorbjornsen, 24, is still seeking his first win after making 45 starts on the PGA Tour. He does have a second-place finish at this year’s Corales Puntacana Championship under his belt.

McIlroy also addressed the elephant in the room in regard to any potential issues with TGL teammate and former United States Ryder Cup captain Bradley in the wake of the recent Ryder Cup.

McIlroy noted that any lingering issues with Bradley lasted for “a week or two,” but it’s over now.

McIlroy, in fact, made a joke at Bradley’s expense.

“We should’ve got Viktor Hovland in there (TGL) to fake an injury,” McIlroy said, referencing the Norwegian golfer who had to sit out the final day of the Ryder Cup with a neck injury.

“I think Keegan was put in a tough spot.”
