There will be a Boston-New York rivalry in TGL, the tech-infused golf league being fronted by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy that is scheduled to begin play in January.
New York Mets owner Steven A. Cohen is the latest sports figure to purchase a team in the league, TMRW Sports announced Thursday.
TGL said the team will represent New York and will be managed by his family office, Cohen Private Ventures. «We're excited to partner with TMRW Sports and represent New York as a founding TGL team,» Cohen said in a statement. «As golf continues to grow in popularity, there's a demand for enhanced access to the sport and the world's top players.
TGL's primetime schedule will offer an up-close, fast-paced, and innovative take on the sport that will appeal to traditional golf and new fans alike.
