Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy's vision for the future of golf has taken a major step forward with the announcement that the world's first women's indoor golf league, WTGL (Women's Tiger Golf League), will launch in 2026. Building on the success of the inaugural men's TGL season held last year, which saw teams compete in team matchplay, the ladies' version promises to deliver an exciting and innovative playing experience.
The inaugural season of TGL saw teams of golfers competing at a five-storey-high simulator screen before moving to a green that can rotate 360 degrees, creating hole-to-hole variations. The women's league will follow suit, with its own unique format and challenges awaiting the world's best female golfers. Teams will compete in team matchplay, pushing their skills to the limit as they navigate this cutting-edge technology.
The launch of WTGL marks an exciting milestone for women's golf, providing a new platform for talented players to showcase their abilities. With the league scheduled to kick off at the end of 2026, fans can look forward to witnessing some of the world's top female golfers in action, competing against each other in this thrilling indoor format.
Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy, who founded TGL last year, have expressed their enthusiasm for WTGL, believing that innovation will help women's golf reach new heights. "Partnering with [TMRW Sports] on WTGL reflects our belief that innovation can help the game reach new fans and create greater visibility for LPGA athletes," said Craig Kessler, Chief of the LPGA. By launching a female version of TGL, the founders aim to increase the global visibility of women's golf, creating more opportunities for talented players and growing the sport as a whole.
The inaugural men's TGL season saw teams compete in exciting matchplay events, with Atlanta Drive emerging victorious last year. This year, new teams will be competing, each with their own unique style and strengths. The WTGL promises to deliver even more thrilling matches, pushing the boundaries of indoor golf as we know it.
