Interesting that his name was 'Roger'. In Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet, the very bawdy and risque nurse makes reference to a roger, referring to the male sexual appendage (if I remember my college Shakespeare class aright).

I'm actually surprised the earliest use wasn't during the first ever round of golf! Possibly the first shot out of the #1 tee box!

The term "rogering" (as in screwing) originated in the 16th century in a number of literary works..
