If you have not been keeping up with the TGL, it's not too late. The playoffs are set after Jupiter Links Golf Club came back from a 6-3 deficit with three holes remaining against The Bay Golf Club to win 9-6 and secure the final spot Tuesday. Jupiter Links, led by captain Tiger Woods, earned the fourth seed and will face Keegan Bradley's top-seeded Boston Common Golf in the March 17 semifinals. Second-seeded Los Angeles Golf Club will meet No. 3 Atlanta Drive Golf Club, the reigning champion, in the other semifinal. The sleeper? It just may be Jupiter Links, which lost six of its first seven matches over the first two seasons before turning its prospects around. Jupiter led the league in singles points won (16), Hammers thrown (15), Hammers won (11) and tied for most singles holes won (11). In essence, Jupiter is embodying its captain's competitive tenacity.
