Fenway Sports Group Buys Boston Common Golf as Fifth WTGL Franchise

The move deepens major-league investment in a new LPGA-partnered indoor team golf league and could speed sponsorship and fan growth.

Overview

  • Fenway Sports Group confirmed Monday that it will own Boston Common Golf, marking FSG’s first team ownership in women’s professional golf and the fifth franchise announced for WTGL.
  • WTGL is set to debut this fall at the SoFi Center in Palm Beach Gardens with a fast-paced indoor team match-play format built around televised weekly matchups.
  • TMRW Sports has announced 14 players so far for the inaugural season, including six of the world’s top 13 and a combined 95 LPGA Tour wins, with more roster moves expected before play begins.
  • World No. 1 Nelly Korda has declined to join WTGL and publicly criticized creating a separate indoor women’s league rather than integrating women into the existing men’s format, highlighting talent and structural tensions.
  • FSG was an early investor in TMRW Sports and TGL, and its entry reinforces a pattern of established sports owners backing team golf, which could accelerate sponsorship, media deals and community programs tied to the league.
