JUSTIN ROSE MAKES HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT BY CONFIRMING NEW TEAM MOVE
Justin Rose becomes the newest member of Los Angeles Golf Club on Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy’s tech-infused golf league, TGL.
It has been verified on social media that Justin Rose is the newest member of Los Angeles Golf Club on TGL.
The tech-driven league founded by PGA Tour icons Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy was originally scheduled to launch this month, but it has been forced to postpone its launch until 2025.
The recent collapse of the stadium roof at the SoFi Center in Florida was the cause of this.
But despite the TGL’s huge setback, the teams are starting to all come together.
Six teams from six different cities will go head-to-head in a season-long competition at SoFi Center, a first-of-its-kind venue built specifically for golf on the campus of Palm Beach State College.
Woods will be on Jupiter Links GC, while McIlroy will be on Boston Common.
Check out this guide to see how the TGL teams are all shaping up ahead of 2025.
One of the teams getting its business done this month is Los Angeles GC, which has signed former US Open champion Justin Rose to its roster that already included two-time major champion Collin Morikawa and Sahith Theegala.
We got him!” tweeted LAGC on Twitter.
“Welcome to LAGC Justin Rose – with you joining the roster we’ll be unstoppable.”
Rose said of his signing to LAGC:
“I am excited to become a part of Los Angeles Golf Club. From the very beginning, I was drawn to the Club’s commitment to their fans and their impact focus in the Los Angeles community. We are mission and vision aligned and I’m thrilled to be joining LAGC.”
Rose’s biggest career title to date at the 2013 US Open. The European Ryder Cup hero also won the 2018 FedEx Cup on the PGA Tour, as well as a gold medal at the 2016 Olympics.
The TGL season was set to kick off on 9 January 2024. But all that has changed as a result of the TGL’s stadium roof collapsing on 14 November 2023.
It is understood the TGL will definitely start in early 2025.
There will be 15 regular season games, a semi-final, and a final when the inaugural 2025 season finally gets underway.
As of right now, 23 players have formally registered to compete in the TGL.
The all-star group has won 223 PGA Tour events, 32 major championships, and 886 weeks at the top of the rankings.
A few weeks before he announced he was joining the LIV Golf League, Jon Rahm was originally scheduled to play.
