A power system failure at the SoFi Center in Palm Beach Gardens resulted in the roof collapsing, potentially delaying the January commencement of Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods TGL golf venture.<\/p>\n

The venue was chosen for the upcoming digital golf league, which is set to launch on Jan. 9, 2024. However, the venue’s construction may face delays due to the roof deflation and damages sustained to the facility.<\/p>\n

Despite being scheduled to be completed in January, the circumstances could affect the timeline for finishing the venue. A statement from TMRW Sports, founded by Woods, McIlory, and their business partner Mike McCarley, read: “The dome section has been further deflated by our crew and will remain down while they work to remedy the situation.”<\/p>\n

Additionally, it has been reported that no injuries occurred at the venue when the roof deflated. The statement further indicated that all the technology slated for use in televised matches for TGL remained undamaged despite the collapse.<\/p>\n

According to a TGL representative, as reported by Sports Illustrated, the current plan is to maintain the existing schedule. Construction workers will persist in their efforts around the dome, intentionally left deflated to mitigate any potential additional damage.<\/p>\n

The venue will cover an area of almost 250,000 square feet and have seating for around 2,000 fans during match nights. It features a massive screen measuring 64 feet in height and 46 feet in width, much larger than the regular simulator screens found at consumer places like Top Golf. The green area will comprise a 3,800-square-foot putting surface, three sand bunkers, and three adaptable greens.<\/p>\n

The dome spans around 250,000 square feet and facilitates an oversized simulator featuring a 46-by-64-foot screen. This setup allows players to hit shots and incorporates elements such as greens and bunkers.<\/p>\n
