TGL names official technology partner, releases renderings of stadium
TGL announced on Wednesday Full Swing, the maker of golf simulators, as an official technology partner, contributing a majority of tech solutions for TGL’s innovative gameplay.
Given that Full Swing is the official licensee of the PGA Tour in the golf simulator category and counts TGL participants Tiger Woods, Jon Rahm and Xander Schauffele among its endorsers, the company was a logical choice to be integrated into the development of TGL’s gameplay technology over the past year.
“When we started looking at the technology required to make TGL a reality, I knew that Full Swing would be the key company I’d be comfortable working with to provide the best experience for players and viewers,” said Woods, co-founder of TMRW Sports and committed TGL player. “I’ve used Full Swing for almost ten years now and they continually innovate to make the experience better across their entire product line that I use at home and on the range. This is why I trust Full Swing to help power a majority of TGL’s gameplay platform.”
Full Swing technology will be utilized as the driving force of the TGL gameplay experience, which ultimately will feature more than 10 integrated technology elements. Additionally, TGL teams will warm up on Full Swing Pro 2.0 Simulators featuring a customizable driving range to prepare for matches.
“Across our simulator software experience, KIT launch monitor, and Virtual Green that can literally shift the type of putts the players will face, our entire product line will be represented with TGL,” said Ryan Dotters, CEO of Full Swing. “We’re actively customizing and super-sizing these tech solutions and several software platforms for the league’s unique needs.”
TGL is a new primetime golf league that fuses technology and live action with teams of PGA Tour stars competing in a purpose-built arena in Palm Beach, Florida, across a season of matches starting in January 2024. Currently, 12 players are committed to playing in TGL and have been announced, including Woods, Rahm, Schauffele, Rory McIlroy, Justin Thomas, Collin Morikawa, Matt Fitzpatrick, Justin Rose, Adam Scott, Max Homa, Rickie Fowler, and Billy Horschel.
