The tenth match of Tiger Woods’ TGL recorded its lowest viewership on Monday, February 24. The first match of the evening garnered only 263K viewers, with a slight increase to 297K for the second match of the day.
TGL action began at 5 pm ET, featuring Los Angeles Golf Club against New York Golf Club, followed by Boston Common GC facing Atlanta GC at 9 pm ET.
On Tuesday, February 24, Josh Carpenter of Sports Business Journal took to X to report TGL’s latest viewership numbers. Following this, NUCLR Golf asked followers if they were losing interest in the tech-infused league.
Fans online had different takes on the plummeting ratings. Many believed Tiger Woods was the driving force behind the league, and his absence resulted in a lack of attraction.
“No Tiger, little interest,” one fan wrote.
“Yep, it’s dead,” another fan posted.
“I watched it for the first time last night! It is a complete rip-off of LIV Golf, except it’s with a sim. The only problem is that TGL is painful to watch, while LIV Golf is my favorite league!” this fan commented.
“I called that after the first week. Boring as hell,” another fan opined.
“Watched twice. It was a curiosity. Regardless of who is playing, it’s still just simulator golf. I’d rather go to my garage and practice my putting,” one user remarked.
“It’s actually the exact opposite. In fact, TGL had a really successful ratings night. As @JoshACarpenter’s full tweet notes, TGL delivered more than double the viewers in the same slot on ESPN2 as last year. That means a significant number of active viewers chose to tune in,” one user posted.
