The Best Courses In PGA Tour 2K25

Summary

• Each course in PGA Tour 2K25 offers unique challenges and characteristics, keeping gameplay fresh.
• Courses like Quail Hollow, Pebble Beach, and TPC Sawgrass provide thrilling and scenic experiences.
• Oakmont Country Club and East Lake Golf Club test your precision and skills, delivering varied gameplay.

Although PGA Tour 2K25 may fall a bit short when it comes to its pro golfer roster, developer HB Studios tries to make up for it on the course front by providing you with plenty of options to choose from. And while there are various user-generated courses available to check out in the game as well, you will likely initially be playing on the courses that have hosted some of the greatest moments in PGA Tour history.

Since each course comes with its own special characteristics, ranging from beautiful landscapes to tricky obstacles, there are some that serve as instant highlights thanks to the entertainment factor and challenges that they bring to the table.

Quail Hollow Club

North Carolina, USA

Having hosted multiple PGA Tour championships in real life, the Quail Hollow Club in North Carolina comes with 18 holes for you to take on, and since each hole comes with its own challenges, the gameplay never becomes dull on this course. You can have the best pro golfer on the PGA Tour 2K25 roster selected, and you will still need to be extra careful regarding the obstacles that come with the course, which include frustrating sandpits to slow you down.

Of course, witnessing and getting to play on the popular Green Mile holes that the Quail Hollow Club features towards the course’s end is also a wonderful feeling, which is just the cherry on top of the already exciting 15 holes leading up to them.

7

Pebble Beach

California, USA

This course comes with absolutely gorgeous views of the Pacific Ocean and borders the California coastline, making it one of the most stunning courses to be featured in PGA Tour 2K25 and real life as well. Aside from the holes, especially from the fourth to the tenth, being extremely aesthetic to play on, Pebble Beach Golf Links also encourages you to play a bit more aggressively than the rest of the course roster in the game.

That, combined with an impressive variety of different types of sloping, makes Pebble Beach Golf Links a thrilling spectacle to behold, although a couple of its holes can be a bit underwhelming and feel like a hassle to get through compared to its standout ones.

Royal Portrush Golf Club

Northern Ireland, UK

While the majority of official courses available to visit in PGA Tour 2K25 are situated in the United States, the Royal Portrush Golf Club is a nice detour to the United Kingdom, located in Northern Ireland and featuring beautiful views.

You will be playing on the Dunluce Links, the course for the Open Championship 2025, but what makes it unique is the view of the ruins of the 13th-century Dunluce Castle, setting it apart from every other course featured in the game.

However, you can’t let the overlooking castle distract you from the holes, as the tough challenge begins as early as the fourth hole, so you will need to be extra accurate unless you want to end up out of bounds or in thick rough.

5

The Riviera Country Club

California, USA

When you start your match at The Riviera Country Club, the course will throw you off at the beginning by wrongfully setting your expectations, making you think it is going to be an easy win on the first hole. However, the difficulty level increases drastically right after that, as you will need to tackle the second hole while facing an uphill and windy battle, which will quickly make you realize that this course is not going to be a breeze to get through.

To add an even bigger challenge to the round, The Riviera Country Club also sets itself apart with a bunker placed right in the middle of the green, all of which results in a fascinating course that always keeps you on your toes.

4

Pinehurst Resort And Country Club

North Carolina, USA

Out of the ten courses that make up the resort and country club in North Carolina, Pinehurst No. 2 remains the most popular, and, unsurprisingly, it is one of the best courses in PGA Tour 2K25 as well. For starters, it is not really easy to pull off the greatest chip shots on this course, so you have to be incredibly accurate unless you want your ball to roll off the green, leaving you in a tricky situation.

Although beginners may have a relatively harder time on the Pinehurst No. 2 course, the tee variety ensures that each shot matters and anything can happen at any time, giving everyone fair chances to turn things around at almost every point of the match.

3

TPC Sawgrass

Florida, USA

Despite being relatively accessible for every playstyle, TPC Sawgrass is simultaneously one of the most difficult courses featured in PGA Tour 2K25, and that was to be expected given its notorious Island Green hole. Placed at number 17 on the Stadium course, the Island Green hole is almost completely surrounded by water, as the name suggests, and the only way to get to it is through a very narrow path.

That adds a sense of excitement to TPC Sawgrass that can’t really be found on the majority of other courses in the game, as it requires you to be more precise than you have likely ever been golfing.

2

East Lake Golf Club

Georgia, USA

If you are not really looking for a straightforward game of golf and want to experience both ups and downs constantly, then the East Lake Golf Club has got you covered, as it does not cater to just one of your skills and requires you to think hard about your shots. Just hitting the ball is not going to get you anywhere, as you will have to find the perfect balance between power and accuracy.

All of that makes the East Lake Golf Club one of the most versatile courses in PGA Tour 2K25, as you will also have to face several slopes and bunkers on your way towards victory.

1

Oakmont Country Club

Pennsylvania, USA

When the best pro golfer on the PGA Tour 2K25 roster, Tiger Woods himself, calls the Oakmont Country Club one of the most difficult courses to play on, you know it is going to come with all sorts of surprises throughout the match. From a remarkable slope to extremely challenging greens, you will have to ensure that you come up with a lot of precision and accuracy if you want any chance of winning.

This course also puts the spotlight on your putting skills far more than any other because you have to ensure that you earn every point you possibly can, as the tide of the round can turn at any given instance.
