The TGL has been facing hurdle after hurdle in the past few weeks. It started with mixed reactions to the game’s format, and then things got serious when Jon Rahm disappeared with no warning. And now a news update has revealed another setback.

A recent update on an incident at the TGL Stadium has left fans concerned. The update talks about damages to the property that needs some time to be fixed. Apparently, the dome section has taken some damage. Amid uncertainty surrounding his own comeback, Tiger Woods probably won’t be too happy about this.

The TGL team has released a statement to Golf.com about an incident that occurred in the SoFi stadium. The TGL is a virtually designed innovative golf league that uses technology heavily. Its stadium has an air-supported dome that has partially deflated due to an electric malfunction at the facility. 

As per the statement, “An overnight failure to the temporary power system used during the construction phase caused partial deflation and limited damage to the air-supported dome section of the site.”

The statement added that there have been no injuries and that other work on the site will continue further. As for the damaged dome, it has been deflated fully and taken down. The crew are attending to it, fixing the same.

The TGL team, while speaking to journalist Josh Carpenter, stated that it’s too early to determine the impact of the incident that happened at their Palm Beach property. While it appears from the statements that the damages are intense, it looks like some time will be required to get things back to their original condition.
