The golfers came to support home team Texas Rangers and left happily after the Rangers defeated the Arizona Diamondbacks to earn a lead of 1-0 in the World series.

Jordan Spieth and Scottie Scheffler played together at the 2023 Ryder Cup. However, their team lost the match against Team Europe by a margin of five points.


Jordan Spieth and Scottie Scheffler are to miss the stellar field of the 2024 TGL series

Jordan Spieth and Scottie Scheffler both will miss the stellar 24 golfers field of Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy's newly formed golf virtual series, TGL.

The roster for the first edition of the series was confirmed earlier this month and it includes the names of almost all the top-ranked golfers currently playing on the PGA Tour. However, Spieth and Scheffler were not included in the roster.

TGL is a virtual golf series that will have 15 regular tournaments throughout the season and will conclude with a semi-final and final round. Golfers will play in a team of four players on Monday nights starting January 2024.

Although the exact reason for their absence is not revealed yet, several outlets including Golf Magic and NUCLR Golf claimed that distance is one of the prominent reasons.

Speith and Schaffer both live in Texas while most of the golfers are permanent residents of Florida. Noticeably, 2023 Tour Championship winner Viktor Hovland will also miss the TGL Series.

Here is the roster of TGL:

  • Tiger Woods
  • Rory McIlroy
  • Jon Rahm
  • Justin Thomas
  • Adam Scott
  • Collin Morikawa
  • Matt Fitzpatrick
  • Rickie Fowler
  • Billy Horschel
  • Justin Rose
  • Xander Schauffele
  • Max Homa
  • Tommy Fleetwood
  • Tom Kim
