This ambitious project is the brainchild of TMRW Sports, a company co-founded by Woods and McIlroy, and represents their vision for the future of the sport. Despite their longstanding feud with LIV Golf, the pair extended an olive branch by inviting Scott O’Neil, the likely successor to LIV’s CEO Greg Norman, to the launch event.
The Feud Between PGA and LIV: A Complex History
Since LIV Golf’s inception in 2022 under Norman’s leadership, tensions between LIV and the PGA Tour have been palpable. Tiger Woods famously turned down a reported $800 million offer to join LIV, citing irreconcilable differences with Norman’s leadership style. In December of that year, Woods expressed skepticism about any potential merger, stating: “Not right now, not with their leadership, not with Greg there and his animosity towards the tour itself.”
Meanwhile, Rory McIlroy openly criticized Norman, suggesting that progress could only be made if the two-time major winner exited his role. McIlroy’s ongoing discussions with Yasir Al-Rumayyan, chairman of Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF), highlight efforts to navigate a challenging landscape and bring stability to the sport.

The Future of Golf: Unity or Division?
While the framework for a PGA-LIV merger was agreed upon in June 2023, Woods and McIlroy’s actions suggest a calculated effort to reshape golf’s narrative. By launching TGL, they’re introducing a dynamic new format that contrasts sharply with traditional golf, potentially uniting audiences divided by the LIV controversy. Their decision to include a LIV executive at the event underscores a willingness to bridge divides, even as Norman’s role remains contentious.
The launch of TGL marks a bold step forward for golf, blending innovation with tradition and fostering dialogue between rival factions. As the league gains traction, fans will be watching closely to see how it reshapes the sport’s landscape.
