In a 250,000-square-foot building nestled in Palm Beach, Florida, the latest chapter in professional golf is set to unfold tomorrow. Here, golf is going indoors and primetime. On the 'tech-infused' stage of SoFi Center, a new attempt to breathe life back into a declining, civil war-torn sport will begin its quest. This is Tomorrow's Golf League and it promises to be the future of golf.

A year behind schedule, TGL will finally make its debut on Tuesday when Matt Fitzpatrick, Rickie Fowler and Xander Schauffele take on Ludvig Aberg, Wyndham Clark and Shane Lowry. But the latest venture to revolutionise the world of golf presents an unholy sight for the traditional, buttoned-up, country clubber. Yet, that could just be the key to its success.

Instead of rolling fairways and manicured greens, 24 of the PGA Tour's best will hit to a screen, 64 feet wide and 53 feet high. Spectators won't have to flock the fairways. Instead, they will have a $160 front-row view in the 1,500-seat venue. Tomorrow's Golf League (TGL) will make its debut on January 7 in Palm Beach, Florida.

The 'tech-infused' venture is the brainchild of Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods' company. TGL has vowed to appeal to both new audiences and existing fans with its innovation. An array of gadgets and screens will light up the arena like Times Square, transforming it into a spectacle Billy Horschel has likened to the London Stadium, home of his beloved West Ham.
