The WTGL has arrived. The LPGA and TMRW Sports’ team-based indoor golf league debuted on Sunday to a sellout crowd inside Florida’s SoFi Center.
LA’s Michelle Wie West, Alison Lee, and Gaby López took the inaugural 3-1 win, holding off New York’s Lydia Ko, Linn Grant, and Rose Zheng.
“This format is so different,” Wie West said. “For two hours, LPGA fans can witness our players in a whole different light.”
WTGL intends to bring viewers closer to top LPGA talent. In front of a live audience, mic’d-up players tee off on virtual ranges with $11 million on the line.
The field is comprised of five five-player teams, with three players from each side squaring off across 10 regular-season 15-hole matches.
