Golf is set to be “reimagined” with the launch of Tomorrow’s Golf League (TGL), a new technologically-driven indoor event spearheaded by Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods.

The pair are partners in TMRW Sports, a company founded to produce technology-focussed ventures in sport and entertainment.

TGL is an indoor simulator league that will pit some of the world’s top golfers against one another. Players will hit from tee boxes with real grass, fairway, rough and sand on tee shots and approach shots into a 64 x 53 ft screen.

For shots from around 50 yards or less, the ball will be placed in a short-game area which includes an adjustable green.

Here’s everything you need to know.
