TGL kicks off its second season with a rematch between Atlanta Drive GC and New York Golf Club at the SoFi Center.
The second TGL season opens with a familiar showdown. On December 28, Atlanta Drive GC and New York Golf Club will face off in a rematch of last season’s final. Atlanta narrowly won both final matches by a single point and enters the new season as reigning champion. Before the first tee shot, the championship banner will be raised to the rafters, followed by the match in the usual format featuring Triples and Singles segments. Both teams start with three Hammers, with Atlanta teeing off first. Familiar names headline the lineups: Cameron Young, Matt Fitzpatrick, and Xander Schauffele for New York; Patrick Cantlay, Lucas Glover, and Billy Horschel for Atlanta.
Atlanta Drive GC relies on proven strengths
Atlanta Drive GC enters the new TGL season with strong metrics from last year. The team excelled in Singles play, earning the most Hammer points league-wide. Billy Horschel led the league in Singles points won, Patrick Cantlay remained undefeated in Singles matchups against New York, and Lucas Glover stood out with a flawless fairway accuracy rate. New York Golf Club rebounded from an 0–2 start to make the playoffs. Cameron Young led all players in points and impressed with his driving distance.
Technical upgrades expand gameplay
With the new season, TGL has made significant changes to the playing surface. The GreenZone has been expanded to allow for more pin positions and varied putting lines. Additional actuators beneath the turf now create adjustable contours, increasing tactical possibilities. The hole catalog has also been updated. New holes like Stone & Steeple, Stinger, and Cenote make their debut, alongside team-themed holes such as Fore-0-Fore for Atlanta and Big Apple for New York. A total of 15 specially designed holes will be played.
