For the first year of the TGL, the tech-driven team sport group founded by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy, a nine-time PGA Tour winner will be a part of the Boston Common Golf group next month. He’ll visit McIlroy, Keegan Bradley and Adam Scott on the Boston club.
After Hatton joined LIV Golf in January, Matsuyama takes over from Tyrrell Hatton, who is no more eligible for a place in the PGA Tour-affiliated group. One of the six annual TGL groups, Boston Common Golf, is owned by Symphony Ventures, a McIlroy-owned funding organization, and Fenway Sports Group.
With the addition of Japan’s Matsuyama, Boston will now have people from four different continents, each of whom has won the Masters in 2021. The Chinese sector, which has a wild golf socioeconomic, presents an opportunity for Boston Common Golf with sponsorships, which will be the primary way that TGL franchises does produce revenue.

In a phone interview, Boston Common Golf CEO Mark Lev stated that” we have knowledge through the ownership interests that Fenway Sports Group has with the Red Sox and Liverpool, both of whom have Chinese players playing on their team.” So we have a little body memory about how to do that. Although we are still in the early stages, we do foresee that there will be opportunities to network with Asian businesses or multinational corporations that conduct business there.
TGL clubs will each have four golf aiming into a 3, 000-square-foot golf simulator screen until they are 50 feet from the hole, and the action moves to a 22, 475-square-foot, customisable short game area that changes between openings. Additionally, TGL regulations include a photo clock and the league intends for players to get mic’d up while in action. Around the playing neighborhood, there is a seating arrangement of 1,500.
TGL’s annual time was scheduled to begin in January, but it was postponed until 2025 due to a power failure that caused the SoFi Center’s roof to collapse. The pause was brought on by the necessary maintenance.
The year includes 15 suits, plus playoffs. The games will become broadcast on ESPN and ESPN+.
Niall Horan, who first gained notoriety as a member of the child group One Direction, is a new trader at Boston Common Golf. Both Horan and McIlroy are illustrious Irish people and have a long friendship. Horan’s enormous social media following, which includes 72 million Twitter and Instagram followers, may gain Boston Common Golf, which may benefit from his extensive following.
Being able to attract a player like Niall with a global following and market profiles that are n’t your typical golfer lover is really appealing to us as we consider expanding the sport and introducing new fans to Boston Common Golf and the TGL, Lev said.
The Atlanta Drive GC, Boston, Jupiter Links GC, Los Angeles Golf Club, New York Golf Club, and the Bay Golf Club are the six location-tied team for TGL’s inaugural year. They have attracted large hitters in the sports area, including Arthur Blank, Steve Cohen, Alexis Ohanian and Marc Lasry, as well as sports Serena Williams, Stephen Curry and Giannis Antetokounmpo. For the Jupiter company, Woods and David Blitzer worked together.
