Tiger Woods was announced as an owner and player for one of the new TGL franchises late last year. Now he’s actually got a team roster to work with.
The 15-time major champion rounded out the four-man squad for the Jupiter Links Club overnight with three popular PGA Tour players in Max Homa, Tom Kim, and Kevin Kisner. The new tech-infused league will start in January 2025.
You won’t believe how much Tiger Woods’ historic 2000 season would have earned him in 2024 money
“I have already shared my excitement and optimism for TGL as a league and product,” Woods said in a release. “Now that we have finalised our roster with a team of world-class golfers, I am even more confident that this group will proudly represent the Jupiter area and connect with our fans for years to come.”

In addition to being co-owner of the Jupiter Links Club, Woods is a co-founder of TMRW Sports, the company behind the new league. TGL was supposed to start this January, but extensive damage to the league’s new arena, the TGL SoFi Center in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, delayed things until next year.

Homa is a six-time PGA Tour winner, who recently played with Woods during the first two rounds at the Masters before recording his best major finish (T-3). Kim became the first person since Woods to win twice on the PGA Tour before turning 21. And Kisner is a four-time PGA Tour winner whose broadcasting experience this year should add to the team’s entertainment value.
The Jupiter Links Club is one of six teams made up of four PGA Tour players with the others being Atlanta Drive GC, Boston Common Golf, Los Angeles Golf Club, New York Golf Club and a final team in San Francisco. TGL is scheduled to launch on January 7, 2025.
