The Women's TGL (WTGL) has officially announced the full rosters for its five inaugural franchises as the league prepares to kick off in November. This groundbreaking competition, conceived by golf legends Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy through their venture TMRW Sports, follows the successful launch of the men's TGL in 2025 and the partnership with the LPGA that began earlier this year.
A total of 25 elite players, featuring well‑known names such as Charley Hull and Jeeno Thitikul, have been allocated into five squads, each comprising five athletes. Collectively, the five teams bring an impressive résumé of experience and achievement. Between them they have amassed 48 Solheim Cup appearances, with eight of those spots already secured for the 2026 Solheim Cup roster.
The players have also captured 15 major championship titles, underscoring the high caliber of talent that will be on display. In addition, the rosters represent a truly global mix, accounting for 28 Olympic appearances across 13 different nations, highlighting the international flavor of the league. The line‑ups are as follows: **Atlanta Drive** – Nataliya Guseva, Charley Hull, Andrea Lee, Minjee Lee, and Yuka Saso.
**Boston Common Golf** – Céline Boutier, Chizzy Iwai, Megan Khang, Lottie Woad, and Ina Yoon. **Los Angeles Golf Club** – Aki Iwai, Alison Lee, Gaby Lopez, Kiara Romero, and Michelle Wie West. **Motor City Golf Club** – Brooke M.
Henderson, Jeeno Thitikul, Lexi Thompson, Ruoning "Ronni" Yin, and Albane Valenzuela. **New York Golf Club** – Linn Grant, Danielle Kang, Lydia Ko, Yana Wilson, and Rose Zhang.
All matches will be staged at the purpose‑built indoor arena known as the SoFi Center, located in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. This venue, originally constructed for the men’s TGL, offers a controlled environment that eliminates weather variables and allows for innovative course designs and spectator experiences.
The decision to host the women’s league in the same facility underscores TMRW Sports’ commitment to providing parity and shared resources between the two tours. Rufus Hack, President of Golf at TMRW Sports, expressed enthusiasm about the upcoming season: "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. The five teams will go head‑to‑head throughout November and December, creating a consistent spotlight for women's team golf and giving fans a new way to see the players' personalities, competitive instincts and decision‑making as teammates. With the rosters now set, the teams' identities and rivalries can begin to take shape." The competition format mirrors that of the men's league, featuring a round‑robin regular season in which every match influences postseason positioning.
After the round‑robin phase, the top teams will advance to a knockout stage that includes single‑elimination semi‑finals and a best‑of‑three championship series. This structure ensures that every week of play carries significance, keeping fans engaged and providing ample opportunities for dramatic storylines to develop. Beyond the on‑course action, the WTGL aims to innovate the way audiences consume golf.
The indoor setting enables advanced lighting, immersive audio, and real‑time data visualizations that can be streamed to fans worldwide. Partnerships with streaming platforms such as NOW and traditional broadcasters like Sky Sports will deliver multi‑platform coverage, including live video, interactive statistics, and behind‑the‑scenes content.
Listeners can also tune into dedicated podcasts, such as the Sky Sports Golf Podcast, for deeper analysis and player interviews. The league’s schedule aligns closely with the LPGA Tour calendar, allowing players to transition smoothly between individual events and the team format without overtaxing their competitive rhythm. By situating the WTGL during the LPGA offseason, TMRW Sports provides a fresh, team‑oriented showcase that complements the traditional stroke‑play tournaments that dominate the women's golf season. In addition to the competitive aspects, the WTGL is expected to have a broader cultural impact.
By featuring a diverse roster that spans multiple continents, the league will inspire a new generation of female golfers and fans globally. The presence of Olympic veterans and Solheim Cup stalwarts will also lend credibility and excitement, encouraging sponsors and media partners to invest in the growth of women's golf.
Overall, the unveiling of the five star‑studded teams marks a pivotal moment for the sport. As the league prepares to launch in November, anticipation builds around the potential rivalries—Atlanta Drive versus New York Golf Club, Boston Common Golf taking on Los Angeles Golf Club, and the fierce competition expected from Motor City Golf Club.
With world‑class talent, cutting‑edge technology, and a fan‑centric venue, the WTGL is poised to redefine how women's golf is experienced, both for those in the arena and for viewers around the globe.
