The Tomorrow Golf League (TGL) kicks off its inaugural season in January 2024, bringing a fresh take on golf with unique rules and a virtual setting. This article explores the TGL format, rules, betting odds, and predicts the winner of the inaugural season based on team composition.
It’s not just the PGA Tour that's getting its golf season underway in early January, it’s also time for the TGL (Tomorrow Golf League). The league was announced in August 2022 with a planned 2024 inaugural season, but it was eventually delayed one year and it is now set to begin Tuesday. The league plans to lean into plenty of the “fun” aspects of golf, including betting. Each TGL match will be played across 15 holes which are selected from a pool of 30 prior to each match.
Every match is divided between two segments. Holes 1-9 will be “triples,” which will be alternate shot between three players on each team. Holes 10-15 will be “singles” where each of the three players will play two holes of head-to-head match play against an opponent from the other team. If there is a tie after 15 holes, the teams will play 3-on-3 closest to the pin on a par-3. At any point during a match, a team can utilize a “hammer” to double the points available on a given hole. The opponent can decline the hammer, which would result in them forfeiting the hole. Only one team can have the hammer at a time. The hammer will switch teams when the first team utilizes it. It’s rare in the sports betting space that we have a brand new league to bet on and in this case, it’s almost a brand new sport. Yes, the main idea of golf remains the same, but a virtual setting with significantly different rules from your run-of-the-mill 18-hole stroke-play event introduces a world of possibilities. We know little of what to expect when the league begins, so I’m going to handicap based solely on the names of the golfers and the odds provided. For that reason, I'm going to back the second longest odds to win, The Bay Golf Club, which is comprised of Ludvig Åberg, Wyndham Clark, Min Woo Lee and Shane Lowry. They may not be as top-heavy as some other teams, but they may be the most deep
