Motor City Golf Club defeats Los Angeles in WTGL debut for team

Palm Beach Gardens, Florida - On November 10, 2026, the Motor City Golf Club put on an impressive debut in their first-ever Wild Talent Golf League (WTGL) match, defeating the Los Angeles Golf Club with a score of 8-3. The event took place at the SoFi Center in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.

Motor City Golf Club's standout performers included Jeeno Thitikul, Ruoning Yin, and Lexi Thompson. Thompson shared her thoughts on the match and the WTGL league during a recent interview with SB Nation. The other players contributing to the Motor City team's success were Jeeno Thitikul and Ronni Yin.

The Los Angeles Golf Club, who were the reigning champions of the Tennis Grand Slam League (TGL), won their inaugural match against New York Golf Club on Sunday. They were back on the court on Tuesday night to face the Motor City team in their debut WTGL match.

WTGL follows a similar format to TGL, with the inclusion of the iconic "hammer" element, which proved to be crucial in Motor City's victory. The two hammer wins during the triples portion of the night were successful for Motor City, solidifying their strong start to the league. Fans can look forward to the next WTGL match on Monday, when Motor City will face off against Boston Common Golf.

Based on recent history, the team that wins their first match may struggle in subsequent games. Therefore, good luck to Boston Common Golf for their upcoming match.
