Tony Finau has signed a one-match contract to play for TGL's Los Angeles Golf Club for their match Monday against New York Golf Club.

Both Justin Rose and Tommy Fleetwood have pre-existing commitments and are therefore unavailable for the match, creating an opening for Finau.

This is the first time in the inaugural TGL season that a replacement player has had to be used.

Los Angeles Golf Club is 2-0-1 while New York Golf Club is 1-2.

The match on Monday will be at 5 p.m. ET on ESPN2 and ESPN+. Boston Common Golf Club will take on the Atlanta Drive at 9 p.m. ET.
