They are optimistic about TGL’s potential success
Golf star Rory McIlroy has announced a new venture with Tiger Woods, presenting a virtual indoor golf league called Tomorrow’s Golf League (TGL).
The show is set to replace NFL on prime-time television during the football league’s end-of-season break. TGL will be hosted at the SoFi Centre in Florida, featuring a virtual green that can transform into different courses
Project postponed
Although initially planned for a 2024 launch, the project has been postponed to 2025 due to storm damage to the venue in November. McIlroy and Woods are optimistic about TGL’s potential success among golf enthusiasts, providing an exciting start to each week on the PGA Tour.
“TGL, which is a new high-tech indoor golf league that we’re trying to start in the US with Tiger Woods. It’s going to be Monday night, primetime in America,” McIlroy told Stick to Football podcast.
“When the NFL stops for the season, we’re going to take that slot on a Monday night, and it’s going to be a kickoff to the week on the PGA Tour.
“It’s an indoor arena where anything inside of 50 yards you play onto a green that can rotate and the slopes can change.
“Anything outside 50 yards, you hit into this massive simulator, which is the size of an IMAX screen – there’s a lot of tech involved in terms of ball speeds, and launch triangles and spin rates, trying to make it an interactive experience for people.”
