Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods led TGL unveil huge 53 x 64 foot screen for their matches
Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy's TGL series is just around the corner to start with its first season, and recently unveiled a huge screen for the players. The most anticipated golf series, which was initially scheduled to start in January 2024, was postponed to 2025.
Now, it will begin with its first season at the start of 2025. It's a tech-infused series, meaning players will play on a simulator, unlike the regular golf events taking place on the golf course.
Recently, the TGL has revealed the screens where the players will hit their tee shots during the matches. It's a huge 53x64-foot screen located some distance from where players will take their shots.
Nuclr Golf has shared a picture of the TGL huge screen on its X (formerly Twitter) account, writing:
"The view of the massive 53 x 64 foot TGL screen that PGA TOUR golfers will hit balls into. (Via @alexisohanian) Will you be watching the simulator league?"
Notably, TGL features six teams, each having four players. The game will take place on only 15 holes, which are divided into two sections: one of the nine holes and the six holes having different formats.
Only three of the four players from each team will play in a tournament. For the first section, that is, nine holes, the players will play in a 3 vs. 3 alternate shot format, while the remaining holes will have rotating head-to-head matches.
24 of the top-ranked PGA Tour players, including Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods, will play in the series, which will start on January 7, 2025, at the Sofi Center in Palm Beach State College in Florida.
