TMRW Sports is a sports entertainment venture founded by Tiger Woods, Mike McCarley and Rory McIlroy. The company launched in August 2022 and has attracted many high-profile athletes in a short period of time.

Shortly after the company was founded, it was backed by several world-class athletes, including Serena Williams and Lewis Hamilton. Tyler "Ninja" Blevins, a gaming streamer, also invested in the company, as well as singer Justin Timberlake.

The company recently announced even more popular investors, including Shaquille O'Neal, Dwyane Wade and Kevin Durant. With this impressive lineup, there is no doubt that the company will succeed.


TMRW Sports was founded in August 2022

TMRW Sports is a company that has a goal of using technology to build new approaches in sports. The company teamed up with the PGA Tour to air live golf competitions on Monday nights. This is the first major project for the company and will start in January 2024.

What separates this golf competition from others is the inclusion of state-of-the-art technology. Six teams consisting of three PGA Tour players will compete against each other in a custom-built technologically-advanced arena.

The TMRW Sports project is very interesting and many sports fans will be excited to see how it goes. However, one has to wonder what technological improvements and ideas the company could bring to other sports as well.

Considering that the innovative company has recently received big investments from several NBA legends, it might collaborate with the professional basketball league in the future.

According to LinkedIn, the company has around 20 employees at the moment. However, considering that it's backed by some of the biggest athletes, it won't be surprising if it grows exponentially within a few years.


The company received funding from several NBA legends

Shortly after its launch, the company received a lot of funding and support from top athletes. However, it has grown drastically since then and the latest round of funding includes Shaquille O'Neal, Dwyane Wade and Kevin Durant.

“The broadening appeal of what we are building with TMRW Sports continues to gain momentum as we welcome more investors with Shaq, Kevin, and Dwyane to our team,” Mike McCarley, the company's CEO said.
“As champions, they understand what it takes to build a great team. And I welcome their leadership, insight, and enthusiasm for what we’re developing as we reimagine sports through the lens of a new generation of connected fans," he added.

The company's CEO also jokingly said that he can't wait to play company pickup games with these new superstars.

As of March 2023, TMRW Sports is worth at least $15 million. However, it's important to note that this is not a public company, which is why its exact value is almost impossible to estimate correctly.
