The trailblazing golf icon announced she has signed on to play in WTGL, the new women’s team golf league launching in winter 2026-27.

Formed in partnership with the LPGA, WTGL is a new team golf venture set to play its matches at SoFi Center in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla. - the custom-built, high-tech arena that’s home of TGL, currently midway through its second season.

Wie West has already attended several TGL matches and is one of the investors in Los Angeles Golf Club. She is set to attend the TGL match tonight between LAGC and Atlanta Drive at 9 p.m. on ESPN2.

WTGL will utilize many of the same rules and innovations as TGL, the fast-paced team golf league that launched in January of 2025.

"As an investor in Los Angeles Golf Club and a fan of TGL, I’m excited for the chance to compete again through WTGL, which will be a powerful platform for women’s golf,” Wie West said.

“I’m passionate about growing the game and TGL has proved how new formats through the lens of innovation and creativity can bring golf to a broader audience. The team aspect, matched with the unique environment at SoFi Center, is something I want to be part of and it’s going to be incredibly fun to challenge myself, this time alongside teammates, to compete against the best in the world.”

WTGL has now secured commitments from eight star players, including World No. 1 Jeeno Thitikul, Charley Hull, Lydia Ko, Lottie Woad, Brooke Henderson, Rose Zhang and Lexi Thompson.

Wie West is one of the most influential players of all time, nearly two decades after her pro debut at the age of 16. She won five LPGA events, including the 2014 U.S. Open, and earned millions in endorsement deals as one of the faces of the women’s game.

Wie West first gained widespread recognition when she received a sponsors exemption into the 2004 Sony Open in Hawaii, playing her first PGA Tour event at the age of 14. Her second-round 68 remains the lowest round ever carded by a woman on the PGA Tour.

No stranger to team golf, Wie West competed in the 2004 Curtis Cup and was a five-time member of the U.S. Solheim Cup team, going out on top as the Americans scored a 16.5-11.5 victory over Team Europe in 2017.
