Everything You Need To Know About Tiger Woods’ TGL team
Jupiter Links GC is one of the six teams in the upcoming tech-based golf league introduced by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy. Woods’ TGR Ventures and David Blitzer are the owners of the Florida-based team. The latter’s portfolio makes him the first sports team owner to have invesment in five major sports teams in America.
The upcoming innovative league’s team announced Tiger Woods as their first player last year. He will be accompanied by Max Homa, who is the top-ranked golfer joining the team. Meanwhile, Tom Kim is the second-youngest PGA tour player since World War II who has pledged his services for the inaugural season. The final player joining the star-studded lineup is Kevin Kisner, who was part of the U.S. Presidents Cup team twice in his career.
Woods’ TGL team has also unveiled the inspiration behind their logo and brand. The ‘Palm Flag’ has signature elements with a combination of a golf pin flag and a palm tree to portray the beach and golf lifestyle of Jupiter Island in Florida. The official press release states that the club “brings to life the vibrant energy of Jupiter.” It has a red color background depicting ‘Tiger Red’, the trademark color that the legendary golfer dons in the Sunday rounds of each tournament that he plays in.
Tiger Woods’ TGL was initially slated to kickstart earlier in January 2024. However, unforeseen inclement weather conditions caused the dome of SoFi Center to collapse last year in November, thus, postponing the league’s start to the next year. The league’s broadcasting rights have been bought by ESPN, and fans are eagerly waiting for what is known to be a new way of experiencing golf!
