  • The inaugural TGL season came to a close last night with the Atlanta Drive defeating New York Golf Club, two games to none, to win the first championship.

The article from MyGolfSpy discusses the TGL (The Golf League), a new golf league initiative by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy, which has received mixed reactions.

The article points out that while TGL might attract a new audience with its innovative approach, it risks alienating traditional golf fans due to its departure from the sport's conventional aesthetics and gameplay. The overall reception seems to hinge on whether viewers can embrace the blend of technology and golf or if they find it detracts from the essence of the game.
