TGL Best Bets and Predictions for Tuesday 2/18/25 (Jupiter Links vs. New York)

The TGL's inaugural season is rolling along, and Tuesday brings a battle of two bottom-of-the-table teams. But there's still time to turn things around and make a playoff push.

Today's matchup features Tiger Woods' Jupiter Links Golf Club (1-1-0) and the New York Golf Club (0-2-0).

TGL Best Bets and Prediction: Jupiter Links vs. New York

Statistically speaking here, the better team -- even without Xander Schauffele starting -- over the last 50 rounds (via datagolf) is New York.

Their starting roster is averaging +0.46 strokes gained per round with Jupiter Links' starting roster logging an average of -0.44 strokes gained per round after field strength adjustments over their last 50 rounds per golfer.

While the new Hammer rules are likely to continue injecting variance into the TGL matches the rest of the way, it's hard to ignore such a big team strength differential.

It's true that we have actually seen two wins (out of four comparable matches thus far) with team strength gaps this large: Jupiter Links in Match 4 over Boston Common and The Bay last night against Atlanta.

But those were both one-point wins, and the other two matches were romps for the favorite.

For that reason, it's the favorites -- New York -- who I'm siding with to turn things around.

We also have seen a pretty strong relationship with the back six singles and overall team strength. New York to win the Back 6 is +105, via FanDuel Sportsbook.
