Tiger Woods' TGL Playoffs Debut Faces Challenges as Inaugural Season Heats Up

The tech-driven golf league co-founded by Woods and Rory McIlroy nears its first playoffs, with innovative formats and standout performances shaping the competition.

The TGL playoffs, beginning March 17, will feature the top four teams from the regular season, with Bay Area Golf Club currently leading the standings.
The playoff format includes single-elimination semifinals and a best-of-three championship series to determine the inaugural SoFi Cup champion.
Innovative technology, including a virtual simulator and dynamic putting surfaces, adds unique challenges and excitement to the competition.
Tiger Woods, grieving his mother's recent passing, has adjusted his schedule and is uncertain about participating in upcoming TGL matches or PGA Tour events.
Boston Common Golf, led by Rory McIlroy and Hideki Matsuyama, faces long odds to qualify for the playoffs, needing both a decisive win and favorable outcomes in other matches.
