Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy's TGL Golf League is shaping up to be an exciting one, as the Fenway Sports Group has acquired the second franchise in the league. This is the second of six teams that will be announced and confirmed by the end of the summer.
With the L.A. Golf Club being the first team, FSG's franchise will represent Boston and the New England region. This will also add to the FSG's growing sports franchises, of which the MLB's Boston Red Sox, the Liverpool Football Club, and the NHL's Pittsburgh Penguins are all members. The TGL is all set to begin play in January.
John Henry and Tom Werner, owners of FSG, spoke about the new franchise via CNBC. The company had been eyeing a potential partnership with the PGA Tour. The TGL, which is partnering with the PGA Tour, was the perfect opportunity for them.
