National Golf Club of Kansas City: Announces that the course formerly known as The Deuce has been rebranded as The Bluffs. The club, located in Kansas City, Missouri, is home to two Tom Watson-designed golf courses — The National and its sister course, which is now The Bluffs Golf Club. The new name speaks to the unique Parkville landscape that carves along the Missouri River and recognizes the elevation changes and water features along the course.
Shot Scope: Introduces the multi-function V5 Golf Watch, which offers precise distance measuring and data on over 100 game-improving statistics, including Strokes Gained and Handicap Benchmarking for use on over 36,000 preloaded golf courses.
TGL: Announces its first three international media partners with Fox Sports in Australia, U-NEXT in Japan and JTBC/Phoenix Sports International in South Korea. These media partners are also PGA Tour rightsholders and will provide cohesive promotional platforms as both the Tour's 2025 season begins and TGL, the team golf league backed by Tiger Woods' and Rory McIlroy’s TMRW Sports, launches in January.

Rosaasen, who previously served as CEO of TravisMathew and was founder of Extracurricular, will be responsible for management of the team operations, including front-office staffing, revenue, marketing, commercialization and player recruitment.
