TGL is back for a second season after a maiden voyage that captivated a large audience, while leaving room for some upgrades that will roll out soon - and Smylie Kaufman & Charlie Hulme are here to break it all down on The Smylie Show.
Smylie is joined first by Roberto Castro with a big announcement! After playing an integral role in helping TMRW Sports develop the TGL competitive structure, Roberto will join the broadcast as an analyst providing insight on the many strategic elements at play.
Smylie and Charlie are then joined by a recurring guest - course architect Agustín Pizá - who dives deep into the imagination, strategy, and data behind his newest designs for TGL.
From format tweaks and the evolving hammer rule to brand-new holes like Stinger and Cenote, this episode gives you a behind-the-scenes look at how TGL is blending elite golf, technology, and entertainment.
