TMRW Sports have announced the first group of committed LPGA Tour players for the inaugural season of WTGL featuring some of the world’s elite.
The first season is set to tee off in the winter 2026-27, and will showcase teams of LPGA Tour players competing across a season of fast-paced, team match play in the purpose built SoFi Center in Florida.
Confirmed participants for the inaugural edition include World No. 1 Jeeno Thitikul, surging English star Charley Hull, New Zealand’s three-time Olympic medalist Lydia Ko, Canada’s winningest golfer Brooke Henderson, and seven-time U.S. Solheim Cup team member Lexi Thompson.
“WTGL will be a global stage to showcase LPGA Tour stars, and this first wave of committed players represents that opportunity with some of the world’s best,” said Mike McCarley, founder and CEO of TMRW Sports.
“These players will thrive in WTGL’s competitive environment as fans will witness their skill and connect more deeply with their personalities through the unprecedented access the league delivers with every player mic’d in the modern match play team format.”
Following the introduction and success of TGL, founded by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy, TMRW Sports and the LPGA Tour announced a partnership earlier this month to launch WTGL.
“Partnering with TMRW Sports on WTGL reflects our belief that innovation can help the game reach new fans and create greater visibility for LPGA athletes,” said LPGA Commissioner Craig Kessler.
“I’ve seen how new formats can engage audiences while showcasing both athlete personality and performance, and WTGL brings that spirit of innovation to the women’s game. It creates another global stage for our athletes—one that helps fans connect more deeply with them and continues to elevate the visibility and growth of women’s golf.”
Further details on WTGL will be announced in the coming months.
