PGA TOUR 2K23 Impressions

Oh, I'll have to hop in and take that!

I'd love to see actual Tiger Woods content...like replaying historic moments from his career or something like that. I want some challenges like EA has, where you can earn sponsorships and gear by beating a variety of tasks and objectives.

I have been a tiger fan my whole life, but I do have to wonder how much he would move the needle with really young people and whatever demographic they are hoping to grow the base here

I think that's what they tried to do with TopGolf in 2K23, and they didn't really do...anything with it. One TopGolf location with very limited modes...it could be really fun, but it seems it was just added because they could.

Same with some of the "influencers" they made playable in the game, as well as celebs that aren't actual golfers at all.

I think the main thing that golf in general is doing to capture younger crowds is YouTube content now. Channels like No Laying Up, Good Good, and such...I could see them maybe connecting with those groups in the next game. But even then, I have no idea what they'd do with them. If they stick to the 2K23 way of doing it, they'd just make them playable and leave it at that.

And Tiger still seems to bring eyeballs...I've seen more online about him at Royal Troon today than any of those who are actually in the lead.

PGA Tour 2K25: "Washed Up"



+14 after two rounds -- yikes..
That's three major cuts missed in a row now

Sadly, maybe Montgomerie was right.

Is there any golfer that retired at their prime. That ridiculous idea was rampant a decade ago. Every elite should quit when on top to be remembered better I guess?

Tiger is almost the same as being retired right now, he has played the 4 Majors and only one other tournament, and he withdrew in the second round. He's at the point that he's playing them just because he's exempt. John Daly was exempt too and tried to play, but at least he played regularly in the fat belly tour.
