Golf’s newest venture, TGL, is here and has brought the thrills expected from the futuristic league spearheaded by golfing legends Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy.

TGL debuted Tuesday in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, with The Bay Golf Club, made up of Shawn Lowry, Wyndham Clark, and Ludvig Åberg, securing the league’s first victory. They defeated the New York Golf Club of Rickie Fowler, Matt Fitzpatrick, and Xander Schauffele, with a score of 9-2.
