Rory McIlroy confident TGL with Tiger Woods will attract younger people
Rory McIlroy reveals what TGL with Tiger Woods will bring to the party.
Rory McIlroy is hoping his new tech-infused TGL with Tiger Woods will help attract more youngsters into the sport when it tees off in January 2024.
McIlroy, 34, was speaking to the media ahead of this week's DP World Tour Championship in Dubai where he will collect a fifth Race to Dubai on Sunday.
The TGL may have suffered something of a blow earlier this month when Jon Rahm pulled out of the roster, but McIlroy is confident his new league featuring a number of PGA Tour stars will prove a big success and help get more younger people into the game.

When asked by a reporter what TGL will bring to the party, McIlroy replied:
McIlroy also admitted during his press conference he is not enjoying his new role on the PGA Tour Board of Directors in light of the circuit's ongoing shock merger with the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF).
But despite all that, McIlroy does consider the professional game is in the best possible shape heading into 2024.
