TGL set for '£60m expansion' which could see Scottie Scheffler and Jordan Spieth join

TGL could be set for an expansion in its second season in 2026, with discussions reportedly underway about introducing a Dallas franchise to the simulator league. This comes after a successful inaugural campaign in 2025.

The indoor circuit, which was launched by golfing legends Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy, finally teed off earlier this year. Atlanta Drive emerged as the first-ever TGL champions following last month's finals at the SoFi Center. Now, just a week later, league bosses are already planning for the next season.

As per the , there is a strong possibility of expanding the league. A group is reportedly planning to bid for a Dallas-based franchise, with the investment figure standing at £60m.

The introduction of a new team would naturally mean new players. If a Dallas team were to scout local talent, then world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler and three-time major champion Jordan Spieth could potentially join the likes of Woods and McIlroy on the TGL set-up.

Both Scheffler and Spieth chose not to participate in the league's first season, with the rounds based out of Palm Beach Gardens in Florida. However, the introduction of a Dallas team could open the door for the two stars to make their debuts.

The report also suggested that the league is considering adding a venue on the West Coast to ease travel for players. Spieth discussed his reasons for not signing up earlier this year.

Spieth opened up on about his decision not to join the TGL: "I've talked with those guys from the very beginning. Just where I'm at in life with my two young kids, and I live in Dallas, it just isn't a great time right now, given when it is in our schedule. You're seeing most of those guys shoot back.

"But most of those guys either live there or live close to there or don't have multiple kids under four years old. So little different place in life right now. But certainly, the Tiger vs. Rory [match] was pretty exciting to the end, and from what I'm hearing, [the Presidents Day triple-header] was, too."

Spieth also expressed his enthusiasm for TGL: "The concept is pretty cool. I'm having a different demographic ask me about it at the course than your typical network consumers of a PGA Tour event on the weekend. They seem to be accessing what they are trying to access, which is great if it is another way to grow the game."
