PALM BEACH GARDENS — Fitting the schedule for TGL’s inaugural season into the start of the PGA Tour season was a challenge.
The league, which includes 24 PGA Tour players, had to consider its players’ Tour schedule and travel — especially early in the season — before announcing the 15 matches that will be played at SoFi Center.
“That’s one thing that was talked about for a while is how to make this marry with the PGA Tour schedule,” Billy Horschel said. “The players had to talk about what events they were going to play, what events they weren’t going to play.
“So we worked hard trying to make a schedule work for everyone. Some may have it a little bit tougher.”
The tech-infused league created by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy debuts Tuesday at 9 p.m. when New York faces The Bay. Each team includes four PGA Tour players, with three active each match.
