Tiger Woods couldn't be more involved with primetime TGL unless he had built the arena.
Woods, Rory McIlroy and former Golf Channel president Mike McCarley are founding partners in TMRW Sports, the sports and entertainment company behind TGL.
“Having the opportunity to not only compete, but also own a team to represent Jupiter is an exciting next chapter for me,” Woods said Tuesday.
Woods referred to TGL as a “modern twist of traditional golf” that ultimately will make it more accessible by leaning the glitz of technology.
The prize fund is $21 million, with $9 million going to the winning team and players eventually getting equity in the league.
