    Like with any movie, a TGL team's success can be greatly influenced by someone who isn't on screen.

    Or, in this case, someone who isn't hitting a golf ball into a (giant) screen. That was certainly the case in Season 1 when the Atlanta Drive won the inaugural TGL title thanks in large part to the work—and brilliant hammer strategy—of team manager Ben Helmrath. As we saw in the finals between Los Angeles and Jupiter Golf Links on Tuesday night, the hammer plays a crucial part of these matches as L.A. raced past Tiger's squad to win the sweep the best-of-three series. Learn more about this unique part of TGL and how a retail executive became such an important piece of a championship right here.
