“Justin and Jon are tremendous additions to join Tiger and Rory as the next PGA TOUR players announced as part of TGL,” TMRW Sports co-founder and Chief Executive Officer Mike McCarley said.
“Both are major champions who have spent time as the number one player in the world and have represented their home countries in golf’s biggest team match-play events.”
TMRW Sports is a tech-focused company, co-founded by Woods and McIlroy.
TGL will showcase team competitions from a custom-built venue fusing advanced tech and live action in primetime on Monday nights.
“Team golf events have always been highlights throughout my career, as the us vs them mentality fuels my competitive spirit,” said Thomas, who is a two-time major champion having won the PGA Championship in both 2017 and 2021.
