Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy's new golf league, TGL, is getting some fresh star power representing the Big Apple.
Cohen Private Ventures, the family office of Steve Cohen, announced on Thursday that Eli Manning, Derek Jeter, CC Sabathia, Michael Strahan, John McEnroe and Jimmy Fallon are joining the New York Golf Club's investor group as limited partners.
Cohen, who also owns Major League Baseball's New York Mets, acquired the rights to the New York Golf team last September.
TGL is the new primetime, high-tech golf league launched by Woods, McIlroy and Golf Channel executive Mike McCarley.
Former New York Yankees star Jeter told CNBC he was drawn to the investment opportunity because it combines his passion for golf and his love of New York.
