Mets’ Steve Cohen is extending his empire to professional golf

Mets owner Steve Cohen can do just about anything he wants when it comes to money. He’s not only MLB’s richest owner, but his net worth is approaching $20 billion. Owning the Mets is clearly his pride and joy, but he’s always on the lookout for other opportunities. Apparently, that includes professional golf.

There is a new pro golf league backed by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy called the TGL. It will have six teams and will be teeing off in January 2024. According to the TGL’s bio on X, it’s a “high-tech golf league” consisting of the PGA TOUR’s top players.
