PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. (AP) — Scottie Scheffler felt frustrated sitting at home for two tournaments he normally plays while recovering from glass puncturing the the palm of his right hand while making ravioli. A big part of him was thankful the injury wasn’t worse.

With Scottie Scheffler returning after his Christmas injury, Rory McIlroy had a little fun at the World No. 1’s expense.

Rory McIlroy, a co-founder of TMRW Golf League, is pleased with the first month of competition, but issues still abound.

You can only imagine how the TGL technicians felt when Rory McIlroy walked into his 90-minute practice session last week with two launch monitors from his personal collection. The four-time major champion and TGL co-founder needed to put his concerns to rest before he debuted in the league: Is the simulator used for golf’s new indoor league accurate?

TGL played for the first time on Monday night instead of Tuesday, and it allowed McIlroy, the No. 3 player in the world, time to get a decent night’s sleep—he lives five minutes from the SoFi Center—and then fly to the west coast for the $20 million signature event.
