For golfers seeking the highest quality Tampa putting green turf, look no further than the official choice of the pros. SYNLawn is thrilled to announce its return as the official synthetic turf provider for the highly anticipated second season of TGL (Tee Golf League), presented by SoFi. Our partnership is the gold standard for innovation in golf. This year, TGL is elevating the competition with a redesigned GreenZone at the SoFi Center in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. After a massively successful inaugural season, TGL, led by players like Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy, listened to player feedback and has made key adjustments to enhance the overall playability and challenge of the tech-infused short-game area.
What Is the SYNLawn – TGL Partnership?
Out of hundreds of leading brands, SYNLawn was chosen as the Official Synthetic Surface Partner for TGL, a testament to the quality and performance of our products. This isn’t just a sponsorship; it’s a technological collaboration. TGL and SYNLawn spent more than two years on rigorous testing and development to ensure the playing surface not only felt authentic but performed in a way that world-class tour professionals would accept. The surface needed to perfectly support a high-tech competition, accommodating everything from real-world ball bounce and short-game play to the virtual/tracked data essential for the league’s format.
This alignment with a next-generation, tech-driven golf league reinforces SYNLawn’s reputation as a high-performance, innovative turf provider. It is the ultimate proving ground, offering a live, televised platform where our putting greens get maximum exposure to the toughest audience: professional golfers. When our turf performs flawlessly under these competitive conditions, it provides powerful product validation for every residential and commercial client.
The New & Improved GreenZone for Season Two
Based on the valuable feedback from the world’s best golfers in Season 1, TGL redesigned the iconic GreenZone to be even more challenging and dynamic. SYNLawn recently completed this critical installation at the TGL’s custom-built venue, the SoFi Center.
The major enhancements for Season Two include:
- A Larger Putting Green: The entire putting surface is now one-third larger, giving players more complex angles and distances to master.
- Reduced Mound Height: The original 7-foot undulation mound has been reduced by half, balancing the difficulty and enhancing ball control.
- Two Bunkers: The setup now features two bunkers instead of three, incorporating the specialized PermaEdge Bunker System with revetted/stacked construction.
SYNLawn installed approximately 31,000 square feet of high-performance golf turf and materials to bring this vision to life. The product selections remain unchanged from Season 1, ensuring the same trusted performance:
- Precision Putt: Used for the main putting surface, achieving a Stimp rating of 11.0 for pro-level roll.
- SYNTipede 243: Used for the fringe and fairway, providing durability and a realistic lie.
- SYNBlue 949: Used for the rough, offering a true-to-life short-game challenge.
- SYNSport (White): Used as the bunker base material, combined with 4–6 inches of Augusta National-style white sand.
- Tee Strike: Used for practice tee boxes, engineered for consistent performance.
The core of the short game area is Precision Putt. Engineered for perfection, it provides the kind of pro-like roll and realistic feel demanded by elite golf greens and is installed with the technical precision of our GreensMaster™ certified installation teams.

SYNLawn Golf FAQS
Q: How does the SYNLawn turf handle high-traffic areas on a course or in a backyard?
A: Our turf, particularly the SYNTipede 243 used for fringe and fairway in the TGL, is engineered with extremely tough, heavy-duty construction. The product features UV-protected yarns and is designed for maximum durability and low maintenance, ensuring it stands up to continuous play and foot traffic while retaining its vibrant color and structural integrity.
Q: Can SYNLawn putting greens be installed indoors as well as outdoors?
A: Absolutely. SYNLawn’s versatile design and quality make it perfect for both outdoor installations, such as backyards and commercial facilities, and indoor applications like office golf turf or home practice studios. We can custom-design any size or shape to fit your unique space.
Q: What does the Stimpmeter rating of 11.0 (for Precision Putt) mean for my practice?
A: The Stimpmeter measures the speed of a putting green. A rating of 11.0 is considered a fast, “pro-level” speed, consistent with championship courses. This ensures that when you practice on your SYNLawn green, you are training at a speed that directly translates to the performance required on high-level courses.
