At the turn of the year, TGL shares the New Year’s resolutions of its star players before their match day.

Entering its second season, TGL continues with its innovative approach: six teams, each with four top PGA Tour players, compete in a 3-on-3 format. Matches are played indoors at the SoFi Center in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, a nearly 250,000-square-foot high-tech complex seating around 1,600 spectators. Instead of 18-hole classics, each match features 15 holes split into two sections: nine holes of team play (‘Triples’) and six holes of direct head-to-head singles. The season includes five regular matches per team, followed by playoffs with semifinals and a best-of-three final. Points are awarded in an NHL-style system, including overtime bonuses.

Coffee, Character, Consistency: TGL Reflects on New Year’s Resolutions

This arena brings well-known faces together, and to kick off the new season, TGL offers a glimpse into their players’ resolutions, ranging from small to significant personal goals. Chris Gotterup took a practical approach: making coffee at home instead of visiting Starbucks or Dunkin’ every morning. The machine is ready; he just needs to learn to operate it. Billy Horschel aimed for something more fundamental: becoming a better version of himself, especially off the course.

Xander Schauffele Prefers No Resolutions

Xander Schauffele kept it brief: ‘I don’t do that. I’m just me,’ he said dryly—no fuss needed. Horschel was impressed: ‘We all wish we were Xander,’ he said with a laugh. Schauffele replied flatly, ‘I don’t know… maybe you’d be happier.’

Michael Thorbjornsen had a clear wish: to play more tournaments with Collin Morikawa, who liked the idea but had no resolution himself yet. Sahith Theegala was concise: ‘Don’t get injured. Don’t play poorly.’ And Justin Rose? He reflected on past resolutions that didn’t stick and vowed to do things differently this time: ‘No more years where I don’t keep my resolutions.’
