Motor City Golf Club and TGL presented by SoFi, the primetime team golf league in partnership with the PGA Tour, today announced the addition of Jackson Koivun to the expansion team’s inaugural roster for the upcoming 2027 season. Koivun joins five-time major champion Brooks Koepka as Motor City Golf Club prepares to represent Detroit in its first TGL season.
Koivun, 21, joins Motor City Golf Club fresh off an unbeaten Presidents Cup debut, helping the U.S. team earn a 17-13 victory at Medinah Country Club. He finished 2-0-1, including a come-from-behind 2-up singles victory over Si Woo Kim as the U.S. team overcame a three-point deficit on the final day.
Koivun’s Presidents Cup performance builds on a rapid rise through the amateur and professional ranks. He earned his first PGA Tour victory at the 3M Open in Minnesota in July, winning in his third professional start. At Auburn, he became the first player to twice sweep the Fred Haskins, Ben Hogan and Jack Nicklaus awards as the nation’s top collegiate golfer.
Koivun also brings an extensive record of success in team golf. He helped Auburn win NCAA Division I team championships in 2024 and 2026 and has represented the United States in the Junior Presidents Cup, Arnold Palmer Cup, Walker Cup and Presidents Cup.
