TGL presented by SoFi, the new, prime time team golf league backed by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy’s TMRW Sports, has announced SYNLawn as its Official Synthetic Surface Partner.
SYNLawn has installed approximately 31,000 square feet of its products across the field of play in the custom-built SoFi Center, home to TGL’s upcoming season of indoor golf events featuring six teams of PGA TOUR stars.
Required to meet the standards of the best players in world, TGL conducted years of research to ensure the synthetic playing surface of the short-game complex was as authentic as possible compared to what these players experience regularly on professional tours.
“We consider the synthetic playing surface within SoFi Center to be an important part of the overall technology mix that makes TGL possible, and that commitment was underscored by more than two years of research and testing we conducted to achieve the end result,” said Andrew Macaulay, Chief Technology Officer, TMRW Sports. “SYNLawn’s expertise, commitment to quality, and innovative products redefined our expectations for synthetic playing surfaces and the teams of TGL players have shared high praise for the playing conditions and receptiveness of the green.”
George Neagle, President of SYNLawn, commented: “We’re thrilled to partner with TGL presented by SoFi and bring SYNLawn’s innovative synthetic turf solutions to such an exciting and forward-thinking sports platform. This partnership not only showcases the durability and performance of SYNLawn products, but also aligns with our commitment to advancing the future of sports and recreation. We look forward to seeing our turf systems featured in a way that inspires athletes and fans alike, while contributing to the elevated experience TGL is creating for sports fans.”
SYNLawn’s partnership with TGL is allowing their teams of pro golfers to compete on a unique system that blends technology and one-of-a-kind synthetic surfacing. For portions of TGL’s competition, teams will also be hitting shots from boxes of real grass at fairway and rough length, as well as from real sand bunkers.
Precision Putt provides advanced surfacing characteristics of speed and the truest roll possible and contributes to SoFi Center’s proper bounce, check, and roll playing conditions. SYNLawn products used within TGL’s technology mix also easily contours to meet the field of play’s precise design specifications, including Precision Putt, SYNTipede 243, Tee Strike, SYNSport, and SYNBlue 949.
