Summary at a Glance

Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods' new golf league has 'coolest owners' and backing of NBA icon The innovative golf league TGL, created by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy, is set to debut in January with a wealth of star power that extends beyond its players.

Basketball superstars Steph Curry and Klay Thompson, along with their former Golden State Warriors teammate Andre Iguodala, are co-owners of The Bay Golf Club, alongside private equity billionaire Marc Lasry and his Avenue Sports Fund.

Wyndham Clark, the 2023 US Open Champion and a member of The Bay's roster alongside Shane Lowry, Min Woo Lee, and Ludvig Aberg, has expressed his excitement about the synergy between his team and their high-profile owners, including four-time NBA champion Curry.

TGL boasts a long list of household names who have invested in the league and its six clubs, including tennis legends Serena and Venus Williams, and NFL stars past and present Josh Allen, Tony Romo and Larry Fitzgerald.

Scratch golfer Curry, in particular, has a deep interest in the game, founding and championing Underrated Golf, which provides opportunities for children from underrepresented backgrounds to pursue their dreams in golf.
