Where is TGL golf located? What to know about SoFi Center, Tiger Woods’ golf league arena

Inside the SoFi Center with three of the 24 PGA Tour pros who will make up the six teams and be televised on ESPN on January 7, 2025.
Call it “The House That Tiger and Rory Built.” TGL will see its founding partners, Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy, face off for the first time Monday under the roof of the high-tech SoFi Center.
The two golf stars started collaborating on their new golf league in December 2020. They built the state-of-the-art indoor golf facility to house it in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. It’s right in their backyard: Woods lives about 15 miles north on Jupiter Island, while McIlroy lives about 8 miles north in Jupiter (to clarify for non-Floridians, no, those are not the same place).
Golf fans can enjoy seeing the stadium’s enormous simulator screen and morphable green on TV, but seeing it in person is a tall task. The arena’s limited capacity means there aren’t a ton of seats available, and the draw of PGA Tour stars, especially Tiger and Rory, means ticket prices can go pretty high. But if you can get in, it’s a sight to behold.
Here’s what to know about the TGL arena, including its specs and what’s inside it, as well as TV and streaming info for the league’s next match:
What is TGL golf?
TGL (which stands for Tomorrow’s Golf League) is a new interactive golf league founded by stars Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy, as well as Mike McCarley, CEO of TMRW Sports Group, which owns the league. It features teams of PGA Tour golfers that will compete in prime-time matches from January through March.
The league is a mix of simulator and traditional golf. Players tee off from a platform into a 64-by-53-foot screen. The league features 30 different hole layouts, and there are fairway, rough and sand surfaces to hit from depending on where the shot lands on the screen. The sand is the same found at Augusta National, home of the Masters.
When the ball lands about 50 yards away from the pin, players will transition to the “Green Zone,” a 3,800-square-foot green that can be adjusted for variety on each hole. There are about 600 actuators under the green that will adjust the slope and layout of the green depending on the hole, as well as sand traps.
Where is the TGL golf stadium?
TGL plays all of its matches at the SoFi Center. It’s on the campus of Palm Beach State College in Palm Beach Gardens, about 70 miles north of Hard Rock Stadium, home of the Miami Dolphins. The arena sits off RCA Boulevard south of the Burt Reynolds Student Center.
The area was a perfect fit for the league because Palm Beach County is “where the vast majority of the players live,” McCarley said.
Was SoFi Center built for TGL?
Yes, although it isn’t the original planned home of TGL. It was supposed to live in an inflatable dome that collapsed when powerful storms moved through the area in November 2023, less than 2 months before the league was supposed to tee off. The launch was pushed back a year, and the current steel version of the arena was built.
“I think it was a blessing in disguise,” Woods said. “We were rushing to get it ready. I don’t think we had all the components we have now, and we certainly didn’t have the technology we’re able to have now. It worked out for the best for us as players, for the fans, and I think for everyone watching.
How big is the TGL screen?
The SoFi Center’s simulator screen is 64 by 53 feet. For comparison, that’s roughly the size of an IMAX screen (50×72). The arena’s rotating green sits on a turntable 41 yards wide.
What is the capacity of the SoFi Center?
The nearly 250,000-square-foot SoFi Center can seat up to 1,500 fans.
TGL tickets
The SoFi Center’s limited capacity means tickets for TGL matches are hard to come by. Tickets start at $160 through the official Ticketmaster site, though many matches are sold out there.
Tickets for Monday’s match between Tiger Woods’ Jupiter Links GC and Rory McIlroy’s Boston Common Golf are available on VividSeats starting at $298. Tiger’s next match, Feb. 18, has tickets available starting at $621 on StubHub.
