Golf Goes Indoors On Prime Time With High-tech Tgl League

Xander Schauffele is making his season debut twice in the span of seven days at venues separated by a lot more than some 5,000 miles.

One is at The Sentry, the season opener on the PGA Tour that starts Thursday on hilly terrain in Maui with endless views of the Pacific Ocean. Schauffele knows what to expect at Kapalua having won the tournament six years ago with a 62 in the final round.

The other starts next Tuesday inside a 250,000-square-foot building on the campus of Palm Beach State College, a technological wonder when it comes to golf and a game that will only look familiar because of the players involved.

This one makes Schauffele curiously excited.

It's the debut of the TMRW Golf League , a six-team league featuring Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy among 24 players - 13 of them major champions - in fast-paced, two-hour matches to be televised in prime time on ESPN platforms.
