TGL Explained : A New tech-Infused, Team Golf League by Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods

The PGA Tour announced some significant adjustments to its financial position and player payments for the upcoming season on Wednesday. More than merely are being done by Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods.
TGL, a tech-based golf league established by Woods and McIlroy and their joint business TMRW Sports, is adding yet another new element to the game in collaboration with the PGA Tour.
TGL, a tech-based competition starting in a few years, pits two teams of three players against one another in a specially constructed space.

The first two golfers who intend to participate in the splinter league are McIlroy and Woods, with more likely to follow soon. The tech-based approach to golf has a vision of the future even though it doesn’t appear to be a direct rival to LIV Golf.

TGL. What we do know is this:

Within the next few years, a tech-based golf league called TGL (it’s unclear what the letters stand for) will begin.
The Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods-founded league sets two teams against one another in a tech-based environment in collaboration with the PGA Tour. There will be three PGA Tour golfers on each of the six teams.

TGL OFFICIAL WEBSITE SAYS – 

“The league will launch with six teams, each consisting of 3 PGA TOUR players. Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy are the first two golfers committed to competing.

The custom-built arena will combine a data-rich virtual course with a state-of-the-art short game complex. TGL will offer a high-tech, high-energy fan experience with fans sitting greenside.

The inaugural TGL season kicks off January 2024 with a 15-match regular season, followed by playoffs and championship match.”

When will TGL debut?
A 15-match regular season will begin in January 2024. There will also be a championship game and the playoffs.
Given that the games will be played on Mondays, it is logical to assume they will begin after the NFL regular season schedule has concluded.

Who competes in TGL?
Currently,  two announced golfers are Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods. In the upcoming months, more announcements are anticipated.
