The TGL league attracts enormous attention from the golf public, and many already mark this project as the future of golf. Some are skeptical, believing that Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy (one of the creators of this league) are trying to copy LIV Golf concepts, with the intention of achieving dominance on the golf scene and attracting younger fans.

It is interesting to point out that LIV Golfers were located five minutes away from the place where TGL was held.
The star of the controversial Tour, Cameron Smith revealed in a press conference that he and his colleagues did not watch TGL, apparently not interested in such ideas.
Its funny, we are probably only five minutes away but weve had media stuff, commitments all day yesterday and were all pretty zonked, Smith said, as quoted by News Wire.
We all went to dinner then went to sleep.
The first day was quite exciting, and judging by the reaction of the fans, it seems that they are delighted with the new project.
Although Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy were not involved in the match during the first day, it is clear that they will be the most important figure and the biggest promoter of this competition.

Watching these kinds of competitions is a bit strange, considering that until now we have not had the chance to watch something so revolutionary in the world of golf.
The creators of this league, as well as the PGA Tour, can be satisfied with the TV ratings, especially when we know that the first day of TGL was more watched than PGA Tour opener and LIV events.
We have no doubt that there will be many reactions to this league in the coming period, especially from LIV Golfers who obviously do not have a high opinion of TGL.
Cameron Smith's reaction speaks volumes about how much the players from the controversial Tour do not want to enter into discussions about the PGA and their ideas.
