WOODS SET FOR JAN 14 TGL DEBUT

PALM BEACH – After a one-year delay, the Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy-backed TGL is set to make its debut on Jan 7.

Woods is expected to make his TGL debut on Jan 14, the new tech-infused indoor team golf league announced on Oct 21, along with the full schedule for its inaugural season that will be held entirely in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.

The 15-time Major champion's first potential match will come in the second week of the season inside a venue that fits 1,500 fans wrapped around a field of play featuring a five-storey-high simulator screen and an adjustable putting surface.

The 48-year-old Woods, who had back surgery in September and played a limited schedule in recent years due to injuries, is a part owner of Jupiter Links Golf Club, a team featuring himself, Max Homa, Tom Kim and Kevin Kisner.

Jupiter Links will face the Los Angeles Golf Club team made up of Collin Morikawa, Sahith Theegala, Tommy Fleetwood and Justin Rose in their first match.

Before every TGL match, teams will name three players each to compete in 15-hole contests that will feature two sessions: nine holes of three-man alternate shots followed by six holes of singles head-to-head play.
