Billy Horschel won both of his singles holes, leading Atlanta Drive GC to a 6-3 win over Boston Common Golf on Monday at the SoFi Center in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla., with the victors wrapping up a spot in the TGL playoffs.
Earlier Monday, Los Angeles Golf Club (3-0-1) edged New York Golf Club 5-4 in overtime to secure a playoff spot. Atlanta (3-1-0) also joins The Bay Golf Club (3-0-0) in the postseason field. The one berth remaining will go to either New York (1-2-1), Jupiter Links GC (1-2-0) or Boston (0-3-1).
Boston held a 2-1 lead through the front nine of team-play triples before dropping the singles holes, 5-1.
After Atlanta's Justin Thomas and Boston's Keegan Bradley halved the 10th hole, Horschel beat Hideki Matsuyama on No. 11. Atlanta's Patrick Cantlay then threw the hammer after his tee shot on the par-3 12th left him looking at a short birdie putt. When Boston's Rory McIlroy three-putted, Atlanta emerged with a 4-2 lead.
Horschel made birdie to beat Matsuyama again, earn two points and clinch the match at the par-3 14th hole before McIlroy got the best of Cantlay at No. 15 with the result already decided.
The Bay oppose Jupiter on Tuesday, but Jupiter star Tiger Woods will not be in action.
The TGL playoff semifinals are scheduled for March 17-18.
