Which TGL bet types and markets are available?

There’s a full offering of betting options available throughout the TGL season for fans interested in adding some extra rooting interests to their experience watching the action. These generally fall into two categories: “Futures” bets focused on longer-term outcomes and “Match Markets” for a specific showdown at SoFi Center.

Futures Markets

As the name suggests, these bets involve outcomes further out in time, such as picking the SoFi Cup champion, runner-up or teams in the Semifinals. Fans can also bet on whether or not a team will go undefeated over the course of the season. These wagers naturally take longer to “grade” but can add intriguing outcomes to cheer for throughout the season.

Match Markets

There are even more betting options for specific TGL matches, and they’re not just limited to predicting the winner. These can also typically include bets like:

• Margin of Victory
• Team or player to win a specific hole
• Yes/no hit the fairway with the tee shot (available on select Par 4 or 5 holes)
• Yes/no hit the green with the tee shot (available on select Par 3 holes)
• Yes/no hit the green in regulation (available on select Par 4 or 5 holes)
• Yes/no hit the green in 2 (available on select Par 5 holes)
• Team or player nearest to the pin (available on select Par 3 holes)
• Longest Drive (available on select Par 5 holes)

Betting on TGL golf smartly and responsibly

It’s also critical to understand how to engage with TGL betting in a sustainable, responsible manner as well before you place your first bet, as it does include elements of risk. You can check out two of our previous articles diving deep into this important topic here:

Some key reminders:

• Set limits: These usually include maximum deposit levels, wager sizes, loss amounts and caps on time spent per day. Limits should be utilized by all bettors, not just those who may struggle to control their betting.

• Don’t chase losses: It is one of the most common problem gambling indicators seen by Birches Health therapists in clients entering the gambling addiction recovery program. Accept the losses as the cost of entertainment and move on without betting more.

• Pick a budget and stick to it: This needs to be a figure that you could lose completely without any impact on your financial health.

• Learn the rules: Make sure you’re fully familiar with the nuances and unique exciting elements of TGL matches before betting on them.

• Only bet with a clear mind: Never wager while under the influence or in a highly emotional state.

• Know where to turn for support: Birches Health offers specialized gambling addiction treatment online with the country’s largest team of specially trained and certified counselors. Care is confidential, secure and can be covered by insurance.

• Keep it fun! TGL betting should be approached as a form of entertainment, not a reliable way to turn a profit.
