A New Era in Women's Golf: What Is WTGL and How Will It Be Played?
WTGL, the women's version of TGL backed by TMRW Sports, which was founded by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy, will bring LPGA Tour stars together in five teams in its first season. Sky Sports will broadcast the 2026 and 2027 seasons exclusively.

WTGL is the women's version of TGL, a league organized by TMRW Sports, founded by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy, in partnership with the PGA Tour. The league puts technology at the center of the experience and brings LPGA Tour players together in a different team format.
Five teams representing five different cities have been set for the first season. Each team has a five-player roster, and the rosters include Solheim Cup stars Charley Hull and Lottie Woad. The season will be played in November and December at the SoFi Center in Florida. The venue was built specifically for this event. Every shot will be shown live, and players will wear microphones for the television broadcast.
A match consists of 15 holes and is divided into two sections. The first section features a nine-hole three-player format. In this format, three players from each team take turns hitting in three-person teams. The remaining six holes are played as one-on-one singles, with three players from each team competing and each player playing two matches. Each hole is worth one point, and the team with the fewest strokes on that hole wins the point.
The course measures nearly 100 yards long and 50 yards wide. The venue can hold around 1,500 spectators. The opening holes take place in a virtual world. Players hit toward a giant 64 x 53 foot simulator powered by Full Swing technology. Shots are then played from real grass, fairway, rough and sand areas. For shots within 50 yards, the SoFi Center has a dedicated short game area.
Sky Sports will exclusively broadcast WTGL matches for the 2026 and 2027 seasons. Matches can be watched live on Sky Sports Golf, Sky Sports+ and Sky Sports Mix. Replays will air the following day on Sky Sports Golf.
