The Women’s TGL (WTGL) has officially released the full player rosters for its five founding squads as it prepares to kick off its inaugural season this November. This groundbreaking league, a joint venture between golf legends Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy’s TMRW Sports and the LPGA, builds on the success of the men’s TGL, which debuted in 2025, and represents a bold new chapter for women’s professional golf. In total, 25 elite players have been allocated to five teams, each consisting of five competitors.
The selection includes a blend of seasoned major champions, rising international stars, and seasoned veterans, ensuring a high‑level of competition and a wide appeal for fans worldwide. Notable names such as Charley Hull, a former European Tour winner, and Jeeno Thitikul, the youngest ever player to win a professional tournament, are among those confirmed. Collectively, the rosters bring an impressive résumé: the athletes have amassed 48 Solheim Cup appearances, with eight of those players slated to represent their respective continents in the 2026 Solheim Cup. Their combined record also features 15 major championship victories, underscoring the depth of talent that will be on display.
In addition, the teams collectively boast 28 Olympic appearances, representing 13 different nations, highlighting the truly global nature of the league. The five teams and their line‑ups are as follows: **Atlanta Drive** – Nataliya Guseva, Charley Hull, Andrea Lee, Minjee Lee, and Yuka Saso. This squad blends youthful vigor with experienced play, featuring the Australian talent Minjee Lee, a two‑time major winner, alongside the rising Japanese star Yuka Saso.
**Boston Common Golf** – Céline Boutier, Chizzy Iwai, Megan Khang, Lottie Woad, and Ina Yoon. Boston Common brings together a mix of seasoned LPGA Tour players like France’s Céline Boutier and emerging Asian prospects such as Chizzy Iwai.
**Los Angeles Golf Club** – Aki Iwai, Alison Lee, Gaby Lopez, Kiara Romero, and Michelle Wie West. The Los Angeles team is anchored by the iconic Michelle Wie West, whose presence adds star power and experience, complemented by promising talents like Aki Iwai. **Motor City Golf Club** – Brooke M. Henderson, Jeeno Thitikul, Lexi Thompson, Ruoning "Ronni" Yin, and Albane Valenzuela.
This roster features a blend of established stars such as Lexi Thompson, a multiple‑time major winner, and the prodigy Jeeno Thitikul, who has already made history on the professional circuit. **New York Golf Club** – Linn Grant, Danielle Kang, Lydia Ko, Yana Wilson, and Rose Zhang. The New York squad is arguably the most decorated, with multiple major champions like Danielle Kang and Lydia Ko, as well as the rising star Rose Zhang, who captured the 2023 U.S. Women’s Open.
All matches will be contested at the purpose‑built, climate‑controlled indoor arena known as the SoFi Center, located in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. This venue, originally constructed for the men’s TGL, offers a state‑of‑the‑art playing surface and a fan‑centric atmosphere that allows spectators to experience golf in a way that traditional outdoor courses cannot provide. The indoor setting ensures consistent playing conditions, eliminating weather variables and allowing for a fast‑paced, television‑friendly product. Rufus Hack, President of Golf at TMRW Sports, explained the league’s vision: “WTGL will combine teams of world‑class LPGA Tour stars with the energy of fans inside SoFi Center to create a thrilling new experience for women's golf.” He emphasized that the league’s format—head‑to‑head team competition—will showcase not only the athletes’ technical skill but also their personalities, strategic decision‑making, and camaraderie as teammates.
The competition format mirrors a round‑robin regular season, where each team faces the others multiple times throughout November and December. Every match carries weight, as results will influence postseason seeding.
Following the regular season, the league will transition into a knockout playoff structure, featuring single‑elimination semifinals and a best‑of‑three championship series to crown the inaugural WTGL champion. By aligning its schedule with the LPGA Tour’s off‑season, the WTGL offers players a unique opportunity to stay competitive year‑round while providing fans with continuous, high‑quality golf content. The league’s timing also ensures that top talent is available, as many players will be free from regular tour commitments. Beyond the on‑course action, the WTGL aims to broaden the appeal of women’s golf through innovative fan engagement.
The indoor venue allows for immersive experiences such as interactive fan zones, live music, and real‑time analytics displays, all designed to attract a younger, tech‑savvy audience. Additionally, the league’s partnership with streaming platforms like NOW will make matches readily accessible to a global viewership, further expanding the sport’s reach. In summary, the WTGL’s five star‑studded teams represent a diverse and highly skilled collection of players, each bringing unique strengths and international representation.
With a cutting‑edge venue, a compelling team‑based format, and a strategic schedule that dovetails with the broader LPGA calendar, the league is poised to deliver an exciting new chapter in women’s golf. Fans can look forward to a season of intense competition, emerging rivalries, and unforgettable moments as the league strives to elevate the sport to new heights.
