The first season of TGL comes to a close next week when the best-of-three Finals Series will be held at SoFi Center in Palm Beach Gardens.
There are still limited tickets available for Monday's and Tuesday's competition via Ticketmaster. Besides the competition, the TGL matches have become a Who's Who of celebrity owners and guests all season.
The lineups for Monday (9 p.m. start, ESPN2) were announced Friday morning: Atlanta Drive will have Justin Thomas, Billy Horschel and Patrick Cantlay in its lineup while New York Golf Club will counter with Cameron Young, Rickie Fowler and Xander Schauffele.
The teams - which will submit lineups for Tuesday's matches following Monday's match - will return to SoFi Center for Match 2 on Tuesday at 7 p.m. If necessary, Match 3 will be played at 9 p.m. on Tuesday to decide the winner of the SoFi Cup. Tuesday's competition will be televised by ESPN.
New York entered the playoffs as the No. 4 seed and upset No. 1 seed, Los Angeles Golf Club, 6-4, in the first semifinal match earlier this week. Atlanta, the No. 3 seed, upset No. 2 seed The Bay Golf Club, 9-3, in the second semifinal. That set up a rematch of the third match of the TGL season when Atlanta shut out New York, 4-0.

Atlanta has been the best team in the league in singles with 23 points, ranking first in birdies or better on singles holes, as well as strokes gained total at +14.0, more than twice as much as any other team. Horschel (5-2-3) leads the league in singles points (8). Thomas (5-0-5) and Atlanta's Lucas Glover (1-0-3) are the only players without a loss in singles.
New York has not lost a match since starting the season 0-2 and has posted a 3-0-1 record over its last four matches. Young ranks third in average driving distance (327.7 yards per drive) and has four drives of 340 yards or longer.
Thomas has made 8 of 11 putts from inside 10 feet. He also leads TGL in mid-range putting (between 10 and 30 feet) by making 3 of 6 from that range.
