Tiger Woods & Rory McIlroy’s indoor golf league set to tee off in January

TGL, a cutting-edge indoor golf league led by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy, is set to make its long-awaited debut on January 7, 2025, after its schedule was officially announced Monday.

The league, initially set for a January 2023 launch, faced a two-year delay when a power outage last November caused the collapse of the inflatable dome at its custom-built venue in Florida, the SoFi Center.

Now ready to roll, TGL will feature 24 PGA Tour stars across six teams, competing in a 15-match regular season at the 1,500-seat arena in Palm Beach Gardens. The season will end with playoffs, culminating in a best-of-three Finals Series for the SoFi Cup on March 24.

Broadcast on ESPN, the league is the brainchild of TMRW Sports, the company co-founded by Woods and McIlroy. It seeks to engage a younger, tech-savvy audience by combining virtual golf with a live, interactive stadium experience.

Players will take their tee and approach shots into a massive 64-by-53-foot simulator, then transition to the “GreenZone,” a dynamic green that adjusts its slope and contours for each hole via turntable technology.

Backing the league are several high-profile investors, including tennis legends Serena and Venus Williams, NBA stars Giannis Antetokounmpo and Steph Curry, and Fenway Sports Group, owners of Liverpool FC.
