The seven-time PGA TOUR champion has always enjoyed team and match play formats, winning the 2018 Zurich Classic with Scott Piercy and taking the World Golf Championships-Dell Technologies Match Play title in 2021.

That sets him up well for the TGL format, which will be team match play golf in primetime at a purpose-built arena in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.

“I have always enjoyed team and match-play formats, dating back to my days playing for the Gators. Being a part of a TGL team and competing in this format on a regular basis next year will hopefully play to my strengths,” said Horschel.

“Competing in primetime in front of an audience will be a perfect environment for me as a passionate player who loves to feed off energy from the fans. I’m excited to support this type of progressive thinking for the game.”

The 2014 FedExCup champion has built his reputation as a fighter on the course who never backs down from a challenge, and TGL CEO Mike McCarley is excited for Horschel to bring that energy to primetime starting in early 2025.

“Billy is a world-class player who is also an engaging and dynamic personality. Billy, and his passionate and charismatic approach to the game, will be a great addition to the roster of PGA TOUR stars joining TGL. I believe he will flourish in the TGL environment, which will feature unprecedented audio access from inside our tech-infused venue,” said McCarley.
