The virtual golf league backed by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy helps fill the golf viewing gap in the early weeks of the season, which concludes in March. In 2026, in particular, it will help quench the desire of golf fans who won’t be able to enjoy a Sentry tournament on Maui.
By setting the season opener for December 28, TGL may have found a spot that works. Yes, there are still two NFL games at the same time (one on CBS and the other on Fox), but there are no college football games that day. At the very least, the TGL opener is a solid second screen option.
