Atlanta Drive wins inaugural TGL championship over New York

The Atlanta Drive clinched the inaugural TGL championship with a dramatic 4-3 victory over the New York Golf Club, completing a two-match sweep in the finals. Billy Horschel's clutch 18-foot birdie putt on the 14th hole turned the tide, allowing Atlanta to claim the lead for the first time in the match. Patrick Cantlay secured the championship by closing out his match against Cameron Young, further solidifying Atlanta's dominance throughout the season, where they amassed 23 points using the strategic 'hammer' mechanism. Atlanta's victory not only earned them the SoFi Cup but also a prize pool of $9 million, while New York took home $4.5 million. The season showcased the potential of the tech-infused indoor league, which attracted some of the world's top golfers. Team owner Arthur Blank celebrated the success, marking a return of championship glory for Atlanta sports.
