Nope, the major hosts are the same every season.

I am currently playing the US open and the green speed is fast and it's playing very fair. Anyone experience this with the green speeds. Thanks!

Some courses have really bad greens/pin locations on default speeds. Two I know of off the top of my head are St. George's and Quail Hollow. Cranking up the speeds on those will cause major issues, like the one you mentioned in your post about the ball rolling off the green completely.

Oakmont, on the other hand, was actually designed to handle faster speeds and plays like it should on fast greens. That's why the fact the course is set to "Medium Slow" speeds at default is ridiculous and infuriating.

I was hitting the green in regulation and exceeding the shot limit at St. George. Infuriating. I’m sitting out the RBC next season.

I didn’t have a ton of trouble with St. George’s greens when I played it in MyCareer (I was on fast greens) but Quail Hollow for sure should be played on default. The worst pin I ran into when I played the PGA with fast greens was on #10 in the 2nd round, the pin was on a slope so severe any miss around the pin would send the ball sailing off the green! And there were multiple other pins in crazy tight locations, like being within 5-10 feet from multiple ridges on the edges of the green.

There's a green on a par-3 at St. George's that will send any missed putt down to the front of the green, no matter where you miss from.

There's a couple other really dicey pins there that can lead to headaches if you don't play them in very specific ways and have shots from like one angle.

I had issues with that course in 2K23 as well, and it seems no real touch-up work was done on it for 2K25, either.

Thank you all!

Now I know how to setup the greens for the next season.

Thanks!

I don’t know what I was expecting but winning a major was quite uneventful.

Presentation in these games is sorely lacking. Andrew Catalon being added to the commentary team for the big events is nice, but everything else (graphics packages for the most part, music, trophy presentation, etc.) is basically the same if it's the US Open or the "Bluff Championship".
