The Women's TGL has officially announced the full player rosters for its five inaugural squads, setting the stage for a groundbreaking season that kicks off in November. This new venture, a collaborative effort between golf legends Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy’s TMRW Sports and the LPGA, builds on the successful launch of the men’s TGL in 2025 and aims to bring a fresh, team‑oriented dynamic to women’s professional golf.
In total, 25 elite golfers—including well‑known names such as Charley Hull and Jeonge (Jeeno) Thitikul—have been allocated to five distinct teams, each comprising five athletes. The selection process emphasized a blend of experience, international representation, and proven competitive pedigree. Collectively, these athletes boast an impressive résumé: 48 appearances on Solheim Cup teams, with eight of those players slated to compete in the 2026 Solheim Cup, and a combined total of 15 major championship victories. Their resumes also feature 28 Olympic participations, representing 13 different nations, underscoring the global reach and depth of talent now converging in the WTGL.
The five teams and their lineups are as follows: **Atlanta Drive** – Nataliya Guseva, Charley Hull, Andrea Lee, Minjee Lee, and Yuka Saso. This squad blends seasoned veterans with rising stars, offering a mix of power, precision, and strategic acumen. **Boston Common Golf** – Céline Boutier, Chizzy Iwai, Megan Khang, Lottie Woad, and Ina Yoon. The Boston contingent showcases a diverse set of skill sets, from Boutier’s consistent ball‑striking to Khang’s aggressive play.
**Los Angeles Golf Club** – Aki Iwai, Alison Lee, Gaby Lopez, Kiara Romero, and Michelle Wie West. With former world No.
1 Michelle Wie West anchoring the group, this team brings both star power and a deep well of experience. **Motor City Golf Club** – Brooke M.
Henderson, Jeonge Thitikul, Lexi Thompson, Ruoning "Ronni" Yin, and Albane Valenzuela. This lineup features a blend of youthful vigor—exemplified by Thitikul and Thompson—and seasoned tour veterans. **New York Golf Club** – Linn Grant, Danielle Kang, Lydia Ko, Yana Wilson, and Rose Zhang.
The New York squad is stacked with former major winners and rising talent, promising high‑stakes competition. All matches will be staged at the purpose‑built, climate‑controlled indoor arena known as the SoFi Center in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. The venue, which debuted with the men’s TGL during its inaugural season, offers a controlled environment that eliminates weather variables, allowing for faster play and a spectator‑friendly experience.
The indoor setting also enables innovative lighting, sound, and fan‑engagement technologies that aim to make each match feel like a live event. Rufus Hack, President of Golf at TMRW Sports, explained the vision behind the 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." The competition format mirrors a round‑robin regular season, where each team faces every other team multiple times. Every match carries weight, influencing postseason positioning and ultimately determining which squads advance to the knockout stage. The playoffs will consist of single‑elimination semi‑finals followed by a best‑of‑three championship series, ensuring that the climax of the season is both dramatic and decisive. Beyond the on‑course action, the WTGL schedule is strategically aligned with the LPGA Tour calendar and the broader offseason, providing players with a competitive outlet that maintains fan interest year‑round.
The league also plans to integrate multimedia experiences, including streaming options via the NOW platform, and supplementary content such as the Sky Sports Golf Podcast, to broaden its reach and engage a global audience. In summary, the Women's TGL represents a bold step forward for women's professional golf, merging the excitement of team competition with cutting‑edge venue technology and a star‑studded roster. As the league prepares to launch in November, anticipation builds around how these five newly formed teams will develop their identities, forge rivalries, and captivate fans with a fresh, dynamic take on the sport.
