Sky Sports has acquired exclusive UK and Ireland broadcasting rights for the new Women's TGL (WTGL), a team golf league in partnership with the LPGA Tour. The inaugural season begins November 8, featuring innovative indoor team golf played in a custom-built arena in Florida. The competition will run through 2027, with Sky Sports also extending its coverage of the men's TGL presented by So Fi for two additional years.
English stars Charley Hull, Lottie Woad, and former world No 1 Jeeno Thitikul are among the headline players in the first wave of competitors. Five teams, each with five-player rosters, boast a combined 48 Solheim Cup appearances and 15 major championships. The format mirrors the men's TGL, including mic'd up players, risk-reward decisions, and varied match play formats. Every match, including the post-season playoffs from December 20–23, will air live on Sky Sports.
The founding teams include Atlanta Drive, Boston Common Golf, Los Angeles Golf Club, Motor City Golf Club, and New York Golf Club, featuring top names like Lydia Ko, Nelly Korda (via team affiliations), and Lexi Thompson. The men's TGL will expand to seven teams in 2027, with Rory McIlroy, Tiger Woods, and Brooks Koepka set to headline the season starting December 27.
