In a highly anticipated matchup, golf legends Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy will face off in the TMRW Golf League (TGL) on Monday night, as they represent their respective teams in this groundbreaking new format.
The showdown will feature McIlroy’s Boston Common Golf taking on Woods’ Jupiter Links Golf at the SoFi Center in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.
The TGL, which launched earlier this month, is a new league aimed at revolutionizing golf, offering a high-tech, fast-paced experience designed to engage a younger, broader audience. The first season of the league began on January 7, with The Bay Golf Club defeating New York Golf Club in an exciting inaugural event.

Monday’s matchup between two of the sport’s biggest stars is set to be a major draw. The event promises intense action as Woods and McIlroy, who are also co-founders of TGL, compete against each other in front of what is expected to be a large audience. The TGL has already garnered impressive viewership, with over 900,000 people tuning in for its debut, and the number soared to over a million when Woods’ Jupiter Links team played in their first match.
Both Woods and McIlroy will be playing for their teams, with McIlroy joined by American Keegan Bradley and Australian Adam Scott for Boston Common Golf. They will take on Woods, who is supported by American Kevin Kisner and South Korean Tom Kim for Jupiter Links.
Each of the six teams in the TGL consists of four players, but only three can compete at any given time, adding an exciting dynamic to the competition. The stakes are high, with a $21 million prize pool, $9 million of which will go to the winning team.
As the sport evolves, McIlroy is optimistic about the future of TGL, calling it a “radical new version of golf” that will bring the game into the 21st century. With Woods and McIlroy both in action, Monday’s match is expected to be a spectacle of talent, strategy, and competition that will not only captivate golf fans but also further elevate the profile of TGL.
