Getting underway on the 7th January, the TGL is starting to reach the end of its maiden season but, between now and the playoffs on the 17th and 18th March, there's still plenty of golf to be played.
The Bay GC won the first ever TGL match, defeating New York GC 9-2
Before getting into the results, it's worth noting how the scoring works. One point is up for grabs on each hole and the team with the fewest shots on that hole wins the point. After the completion of the 15 holes, if teams are tied, they will compete in an overtime tiebreaker.
A win in either regulation or overtime earns a team two points, whilst a loss in overtime sees that team win one point - a similar system to the NHL. However, any team losing in regulation walks away from the action empty handed.
As of writing, just one team remains undefeated, as The Bay Golf Club claimed three victories from three matches and sits in top spot with six points.
Made up of Ludvig Aberg, Shane Lowry, Wyndham Clark and Min Woo Lee, the side claimed a 9-2 win over New York Golf Club, before a 6-5 victory over Atlanta Drive Golf Club and a 5-4 win over Boston Common Golf Club.
Behind them sit Los Angeles Golf Club with five points. The foursome of Tommy Fleetwood, Collin Morikawa, Sahith Theegala and Justin Rose have two wins over Jupiter Links Golf Club and Boston Common Golf Club, but lost in an epic overtime match against Atlanta Drive GC.
LAGC currently lead the way in the standings
Speaking of Atlanta Drive GC, they are third with four points, having won twice and lost to The Bay GC. Occupying the fourth and final playoff spot is New York GC on two points, who picked up their first victory in the most recent match, a 10-3 win over Tiger Woods' Jupiter Links GC.
New York GC only sit in fourth on 'total holes won' and, amazingly, TGL co-founders Woods and Rory McIlroy's sides are fifth and sixth in the standings.
Jupiter Links GC are fifth on two points after a 4-3 overtime win over Boston Common GC who, despite possessing the lowest ranked average on the Official World Golf Ranking, sit at the root of the table on one point.
