TGL, the Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy-led mixed-reality circuit previously scheduled to launch in five weeks, will now be delayed a year following extensive damage to the league’s arena. Last week the air-supported dome of TGL’s SoFi Center in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla. collapsed due to what TGL officials cite as a power failure. “At this time, while we assess the damage, it is too early to determine the impact on our timelines,” a TGL spokesperson said in a statement. “There were no injuries, and no technology was impacted. Other work on site is continuing.” However, the league is now expected to be pushed back to 2025. According to Sports Business Journal, postponing the league’s launch just by weeks or months was not an option, as ESPN—which is set to present the league on its networks—could not adjust to the shift in schedule for its broadcast windows.
Never thought this was a good idea.
People will watch bc of Tiger, but it’s a terrible concept
At least LIV Golf is actual golf

Hopefully, the people of TGL will see this as the sign from God that they need to just kill this awful, awful idea.

What was the demand for this? The "match" golf on TNT was bad enough and that was actual golf.

There was no demand. It was just a way to put more money in the hands of the top players on the PGA Tour so they wouldn't jump ship to LIV.

The PGA’s attempt to payoff players into staying using TGL throws it all back into the open with a 2025 start date.
I would be pissed at my agent if he talked me out of LIV for TGL.

Aren't they just playing simulator?

Yeah, but they were going to do it in an arena with a few thousand fans in attendance. Arena collapsed during construction.

If that is what happens in a power outage, then there needs to be some serious examination of their engineering standards and backup power or air supply. Someone getting sued.
