Highlighting Ohanian’s passion for golf, he owns Los Angeles Golf Club (LAGC), a franchise team in TGL (Tomorrow’s Golf League), the innovative, tech-driven golf competition founded by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy. Collin Morikawa, Justin Rose, Sahith Theegala, and Tommy Fleetwood headlined the team’s talented roster.

TGL is a state-of-the-art indoor golf league designed for prime-time television, featuring six teams of elite PGA Tour players competing in a high-tech simulator at Florida’s SoFi Center. Ohanian’s LAGC is supported by his wife, Serena Williams; their daughters, Olympia and Adira River; Venus Williams; and notable investors such as Giannis Antetokounmpo, Michelle Wie West, and Alex Morgan.
