England’s Charlie Hull and world No. 1 Jeeno Thitikul are among the first wave of LPGA Tour players to commit to compete in the inaugural season of the Women’s TGL League.
Founded by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy’s TMRV Sports, Tomorrow’s Golf League (TGL) is a technology-infused golf competition where players compete in teams in a purpose-built indoor venue.
The men’s version was launched in partnership with the PGA Tour and enjoyed its inaugural season in 2025, while the women’s edition (VGTL) was set to launch in the winter of 2026-27.

Hull and Titikul were on the LPGA Tour’s initial list of five names confirmed for the inaugural edition, played at the Sophie Center in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, along with Lydia Ko, Brooke Henderson and former Solheim Cup star Lexi Thompson.
Mike McCarley, founder and CEO of TMRV Sports, said, “The VTGL will be the global stage to showcase the stars of the LPGA Tour, and this first wave of dedicated players represents that opportunity with some of the best in the world.
“These players will thrive in the VTGL’s competitive environment as fans witness their skill and connect more deeply with their personalities through the unprecedented approach the league provides, with every player on the microphone in a modern team play format.”
Titikul overtook Nelly Korda as world No. 1 after a campaign that saw her win the 2025 Rolex Player of the Year award on the LPGA Tour, including the season-ending CME Group Tour Championship.
Hull and Thompson both enjoyed previous team success in the Solheim Cups, while Ko and Henderson approached the VTGL and both won multiple awards in their successful careers.
Charlie Hull will compete in the inaugural VTGL season, which begins in the winter of 2026-27.
VTGL will feature the same key components implemented in TGL, including mic players, risk-reward team decisions, and multiple different formats, with a season of quick matches.
LPGA Tour Commissioner Craig Kessler said earlier this month, “Partnering with TMRV Sports on the VTGL reflects our belief that innovation can help the game reach new fans and create greater visibility for LPGA athletes.
