tition include Xander Schauffele, Patrick Cantlay, Max Homa, Wyndham Clark and Collin Morikawa.
Three-man teams will compete on a virtual course that includes real grass tee boxes, with seating for 1,500 fans wrapped around a field of play that is roughly the size of a football field.
Players will hit tee shots into a 64by-46-foot screen. Once they are inside 50 yards, players transition to live action inside the GreenZone, a 22,475square-foot short-game complex that physically transforms between holes.
“The GreenZone will use advanced technology to make each hole a unique challenge for the teams, including its 41-yard-wide turntable that rotates the green and three bunkers to change approach angles and using nearly 600 motorized actuators as part of Full Swing’s Virtual Green technology embedded under the synthetic putting surface to morph its topography,” the league said in a news release Monday.
The TGL also announced that there will be a 40-seccond shot clock and that all players will be “mic’d up” during the competition.
Six teams are set to compete in the TGL: Los Angeles Golf Club, Atlanta Drive Golf Club, Boston Common Golf, Jupiter Links Golf Club, TGL New York and TGL San Francisco.
