Hello, friends, and welcome to this edition of the Rogers Report where we are ready for the weekend to arrive at Quail Hollow! I’m eager for some Moving Day drama at the PGA Championship, and even though some fan favorites will be going home early, I have a feeling there will be some great action come Sunday.
While many of us are inspired by players like Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler, I want to take a second to shout out Michael Block.

The fact that the PGA pro bowed to the crowd before carding an 11-over 82 is incredible. I’m going to start doing this on the 18th green (even though no one will be watching) when I tap in for triple-bogey. Who says you can’t live your golfing life as if you’re not a top-10 player? Not Blockie. And certainly not me.
The best news out of Quail Hollow so far this week is the fact that Max Homa is back. He carded a seven-under 64 on Friday, including a 30 on the back nine. He shot a 39 on the back nine on Thursday, so there are two messages here. One is to never give up. The other is that this game is really, really weird and unpredictable.
Also, shout out to my coworker and pal Dylan Dethier for the really, really good Tweet about Homa’s play.
We’ll never know just how tough the last few months have been for Homa, but a handful of his previous press conferences have given us some insight.
