PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla.—Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy put the silver-plated shovels into a pile of dirt and left sizable divots.
With that, their high-tech golf league got a bit closer to launch.
The ceremonial groundbreaking for the arena that will house the league that’s being called TGL was held Tuesday at Palm Beach State College, with Woods and McIlroy—two of the co-founders of TMRW Sports—there for the first step of actual construction.
TMRW—pronounced “tomorrow”—says TGL play will begin early next year, and the league will be in partnership with the PGA Tour. Woods and McIlroy, so far, have 11 players committed to the league. Besides them, the league will include world No. 1 Jon Rahm, Justin Thomas, Adam Scott, Collin Morikawa, Matt Fitzpatrick, Max Homa, Billy Horschel, Justin Rose, and Xander Schauffele….
