Breaking down TGL's viewership numbers through 3 weeks, including this impressive stat

Through three weeks, TGL has had an impressive debut.

Not only in the SoFi Center but also on TV.

Tomorrow's Golf League, which was started by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy, has averaged 869,000 viewers through its first three weeks. That's a 50 percent jump compared to the same time slot on ESPN in 2024, per Joe Pompliano. And as he points out, this stat is more impressive.

The average age of TGL viewers is 51 years old. That's younger than the NHL (52), F1 (53), NFL (54) and MLB (60).

Tuesday's match between Atlanta Drive GC and New York GC was the closest match yet, a 4-0 victory for Atlanta Drive, and 682,000 people tuned in, per Nielsen. That's the lowest number of viewers through three weeks, but a drop-off shouldn't be concerning.

The debut was bound to have a big audience, pulling in 919,000 viewers. The weeks Woods plays, as he did in week 2 with 1,005,000 viewers, are bound to draw eyeballs. Next week against McIlroy and Boston Common could be one of, if not the, biggest audience of the year.

The numbers are vastly better than the PGA Tour's viewership to begin the year, which is a positive for the league. Week 3 was also the best pace thus far, and as matches get more competitive and stakes go up, more fans should tune in to watch.

Sure, viewership was down for the third week of the TGL season. But that isn't cause for panic.
