TGL Guide: Format, Scoring, Rules & More Explained

The TGL (Tomorrow's Golf League) is a high-tech, indoor team golf league founded by TMRW Sports in partnership with the PGA Tour founded in 2022.

Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy are the masterminds behind TGL, an innovative golf league that combines the best of traditional golf with elements of simulator play.

During TGL matches players, hit from tee boxes with real grass, fairway, rough, and sand towards a 64-by-53 foot screen powered by Full Swing technology. For shots from approximately 50 yards or closer, players transition to a custom-built "Green Zone."

Format

  • Holes 1 - 9 (Triples): 3-on-3 alternate shot, where teammates rotate hitting shots until the hole is complete.

  • Holes 10 - 15 (Singles): 1-on-1 head-to-head match play across individual matchups.

  • Overtime: If tied after 15 holes, a 3-vs-3 closest-to-the-pin competition decides the winner.

Scoring & Rules

  • Points per Hole: Each hole is worth 1 point, awarded to the team with the fewest strokes. Ties earn 0 points with no carryovers.
  • The Hammer: Each team gets 3 "hammers" per match, which can double the point value of a hole. The opposing team must either accpet the hammer or concede the hole.
  • Shot Clock: Players have 40 seconds to hit each shot or face a 1-stroke penalty.
  • Timeouts: Each team has 4 timeouts per match (2 during Triples, 2 during Singles).
  • League Standings: Teams earn two points for a regulation or overtime win, one point for an overtime loss and zero points for a regulation loss. The top four teams advance to the playoffs.

Playoffs

Once the regular season ends the top four teams in the SoFi Cup Standings advance to the playoffs. The playoffs begin with single-elimination Semifinals and conclude with a "best-of-three" Finals Series.

Venue Information

The SoFi Center is located on the campus of Palm Beach State College in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. It is approximately 250,000 square-feet and accommodates approximately 1,500 people on TGL match nights.
