The Women's TGL (WTGL) has officially announced the full line‑ups for its five inaugural franchises as the league gears up for its November kickoff. This groundbreaking competition, co‑created 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 a partnership with the LPGA that began earlier this year. A total of twenty‑five elite players—including well‑known names such as Charley Hull and Jeonge Thitikul—have been allocated to five squads, each comprising five athletes.
These newly formed teams collectively bring a wealth of experience and achievement to the arena. 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 across the LPGA circuit, underscoring the high caliber of talent that will be on display. In addition, the rosters represent a truly global mix, featuring 28 Olympic appearances for 13 different nations, highlighting the international flavor of the league. The five franchises and their respective members are as follows: **Atlanta Drive** – Nataliya Guseva, Charley Hull, Andrea Lee, Minjee Lee and Yuka Saso.
This team blends seasoned veterans with rising stars, offering a dynamic blend of power and precision. **Boston Common Golf** – Céline Boutier, Chizzy Iwai, Megan Khang, Lottie Woad and Ina Yoon. Boston’s lineup showcases a balance of international experience and youthful vigor, promising exciting match‑play scenarios.
**Los Angeles Golf Club** – Aki Iwai, Alison Lee, Gaby Lopez, Kiara Romero and Michelle Wie West. The West Coast squad features a mix of former world No. 1s and emerging talent, all eager to make a mark in this innovative format.
**Motor City Golf Club** – Brooke M. Henderson, Jeonge Thitikul, Lexi Thompson, Ruoning "Ronni" Yin and Albane Valenzuela. Motor City’s roster is highlighted by Olympic pedigree and multiple tour victories, providing a strong competitive edge.
**New York Golf Club** – Linn Grant, Danielle Kang, Lydia Ko, Yana Wilson and Rose Zhang. New York’s contingent brings together former major champions, top‑ranked players, and promising newcomers, setting the stage for intense rivalries. All matches will be contested at the purpose‑built, climate‑controlled SoFi Center in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.
This indoor venue, originally constructed for the men’s TGL, offers a fast‑paced, technology‑enhanced environment that eliminates weather variables and allows for a spectator‑friendly experience. The arena’s design includes transparent walls and a dome that provides fans with unobstructed views, while also integrating advanced analytics and real‑time data displays to enrich the viewing experience.
Rufus Hack, president of golf at TMRW Sports, explained the vision behind the women’s league: "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." His comments underscore the league’s goal of delivering compelling narratives and fostering fan attachment to both individual athletes and their respective squads.
The competition format mirrors that of the men’s TGL, featuring a round‑robin regular season in which every match carries weight for postseason positioning. After the round‑robin phase, the top teams will advance to a knockout stage consisting of single‑elimination semifinals followed by a best‑of‑three championship series.
This structure ensures that each encounter matters, keeping fans engaged throughout the November‑December window and aligning the WTGL calendar with the broader LPGA Tour schedule and the off‑season period. Beyond the on‑course action, the WTGL aims to expand the reach of women’s golf through integrated media partnerships. Viewers will be able to stream matches and related content via the NOW platform, while additional coverage—including podcasts such as the Sky Sports Golf Podcast—will provide deeper analysis, player interviews, and behind‑the‑scenes insights. The league’s digital strategy also includes interactive fan experiences, real‑time statistics, and social media engagement to attract a younger, tech‑savvy audience.
In summary, the Women's TGL presents a bold new chapter for professional women's golf. By assembling five star‑studded teams, leveraging a state‑of‑the‑art indoor venue, and delivering a fast‑paced, team‑oriented format, the league promises to showcase the sport’s top talent in a fresh, fan‑centric setting. As the November launch approaches, anticipation builds around how these elite athletes will adapt to the unique challenges of indoor play, how rivalries will develop, and how the WTGL will influence the future landscape of women's golf worldwide.
