Sportscaster blades bunker shot into TGL arena's stands, shows just how close fans will be
If you plan on attending a TGL match during the inaugural season, well, you better keep your head on a swivel.
We've heard for a long time about the cozy confines of the new SoFi Center in Palm Beach Gardens. The intimate setting will allow fans to really experience the action once the new tech-infused golf league gets started next month. There's just also a chance you could take a Titleist off the noggin.
Case in point what happened during this week's Media Day. While full shots will be hit into a giant simulator, short-game shots will be played out around an actual green. And as all golfers know, a bladed bunker shot can go a long way. Check it out as Sportsnet's Ken Reid nuked one into the (thankfully, empty) stands:
"Well, that was the danger of playing inside this facility," Reid remarks. Yeah, that could leave a mark.
Of course, the PGA Tour stars who will be hitting those shots during actual competition will be a tad more skilled than Ken. Anyway, to all the in-person TGL fans: Heads up. Literally.
