Seventy-seven days after opening night of the TGL’s inaugural season, Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy’s tech-infused indoor simulator league is about to crown a champion. Billy Horschel, Justin Thomas and Patrick Cantlay of the Atlanta Drive have a 1-0 lead over Xander Schauffele, Rickie Fowler and Cameron Young of New York Golf Club in the best-of-three final series with Match 2 being held tonight at the SoFi Center in West Palm Beach, Fla. If the boys from the Big Apple can knot things up, a deciding Match 3 will follow immediately.
Beside claiming the SoFi Cup, the winning roster also will grab the first-place prize money payout for their season-long efforts. The winning team earns $9 million to be split among the four players on the roster (Atlanta’s fourth is Lucas Glover; New York’s is Matt Fitzpatrick). A second-place finish brings with it a $4.5 million team payday.
The remaining places have already been decided, Los Angeles Golf Club and The Bay Golf Club having lost in the TGL semifinals two weeks ago, with Jupiter Links Golf Club and Boston Common Golf having missed out on the postseason. Below is are the prize money payouts for each spot in the 2025 standings.
