Rickie Fowler's claim that TGL is not 'real golf' has been played down by one of the league's founders in Rory McIlroy, after the Boston Common captain went into detail about the SoFi Stadium's technology . Fowler is among the 24 PGA Tour stars who will compete in the indoor league, which kicks off at the SoFi Stadium in Florida next month. The circuit will see six teams play week-in-week-out, with long-distance shots played into a screen simulator, before chipping and putting is played out in a short game area. Fowler gave fans an insight into what they can expect when the league launches in January, and while he is excited, he was quick to point out the key differences between the indoor stadium and outdoor golf . "I'm looking forward to it," the 36 year old said during an appearance on The Smylie Show . "In a way, we don't fully know what to expect until it gets going. It is not real golf, but it's not, you know, hitting balls in your bedroom simulator or office simulator. It's somewhere kind of in between." Despite concerns about the 'reality' of the indoor setup, McIlroy has dismissed any worries when commenting on the playing conditions. "The playing surfaces are very realistic because they are real," the four-time major champion clarified "We're playing off real Bermuda grass for the fairways, real Bermuda rough, if you do hit into the rough." However, he did confirm that the greens are artificial inside the SoFi Stadium. "Once you get within 40 yards of the green, then you transition to the green zone where all of that is artificial turf. For all the latest on news, politics, sports, and showbiz from the USA, go to The Mirror US . "But I still feel like the ball reacts very realistically on the green... We made the decision to go with artificial for the green because we want to make it interesting." The league has drawn similarities to the LIV Golf setup, a circuit McIlroy and co-founder Tiger Woods have been critical of in recent years. McIlroy however believes TGL has one key advantage over the LIV circuit. "I think what TGL has done a good job of is trying to locate in the different teams in cities or geographies where you can really plug into the wider sports fans of that city," he explained. "We have got Keegan (Bradley) as well. Keegan is from that area so he is so proud to be playing for a Boston sports team. But I think that is what TGL has done maybe a little bit better - to connect with certain fan bases than let's say LIV for example. But I see this all being complementary." "Obviously there are only so many weeks in the year, there is only so much golf we can all play, but I see this as being complementary to everything else going on in the game of golf."Support grows for Blake Lively over smear campaign claimNetanyahu is leading Israel into ruin: Der Spiegel
