Tiger Woods has returned to professional golf, though not in the PGA Tour. Since it launched earlier this month, Woods has been taking part in his own TMRW Golf League (TGL), which he founded in partnership with fellow major champion Rory McIlroy.
The newly formed Tomorrow’s Golf League (TGL) had its best match so far on Monday with Tiger Woods’ Jupiter Links claiming a 4-3 overtime victory against fellow co-founder Rory McIlroy’s Boston Common.

So, for a moment, let’s treat this like a serious competition. Jupiter Links ran out Woods; Kevin Kisner, who struggled the last time he played two weeks ago; and Tom Kim, making his TGL debut. Boston Common featured McIlroy, Adam Scott and Keegan Bradley, major winners across the board.
The match marked TGL's first with any suspense and first to go to an overtime. Jupiter Links edged Boston Common Golf by winning the chip off.

Woods became the first player in what is now four weeks of the new tech-infused golf league to receive a shot-clock violation. On the first hole of singles opposite Rory McIlroy, Woods had 8 feet for birdie to tie, but before he could put a putter face on the ball, the buzzer sounded mid-stroke.
