Australia, Japan, and South Korea are the first international media partners as TGL presented by SoFi approaches its January 2025 debut.

TGL presented by SoFi, the new team golf league backed by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy’s TMRW Sports, has officially announced its first three international media partners with Fox Sports in Australia, U-NEXT in Japan, and JTBC/Phoenix Sports International in South Korea. In addition to these markets having avid golf communities, these media partners are also PGA TOUR rightsholders and will provide cohesive promotional platforms as both the TOUR’s 2025 season begins and TGL presented by SoFi launches next January.

“Golf is truly a global game and as we plan the launch of TGL presented by SoFi in 2025, we’re focused on expanding TGL's global footprint. We’re starting with media rights partnerships across three strong golf markets: Australia, Japan, and South Korea. We’re energized by the enthusiasm from these partners and the momentum we’re seeing in additional markets around the world,” said Mike McCarley, CEO and founder of TMRW Sports.
