In MyCAREER, choose to start your journey in Q-School, on the Korn Ferry Tour, or by jumping directly into the PGA TOUR. Compete for points in tournaments that mirror the real-life PGA TOUR schedule. Your goal is to finish in the Top 70 and earn your spot in the playoffs for a chance to compete for the coveted FedExCup.
Let’s jump into some of the key additions this year.
Make History in Major Championships
We’re really excited to include three Major Championships in PGA TOUR 2K25—the PGA Championship, the U.S. Open, and The Open Championship—along with their 2025 courses—Quail Hollow Club, Oakmont Country Club, and Royal Portrush Golf Club, respectively.
Dynamic Rounds
Full rounds of golf can sometimes take a bit of time. We recognize that life sometimes gets in the way of doing what you really want to do—play PGA TOUR 2K25—so this year we have added the option to shorten the time commitment of MyCAREER rounds by using your MyPLAYER’s current skill level to dynamically simulate holes on a course.There are two options in which to play MyCAREER rounds in a shorter timeframe:
- Dynamic Rounds: A section of the course is chosen for play so players can get through rounds as quickly as possible.
- Choose the number of holes to play—with separate options for regular events, alternate events, signature events, major events, and the FedEx-Cup Playoffs.
- Choose which holes to play: opening holes, closing holes, or "dynamic," which picks a different section of the course to play every round
- Choose whether the unplayed holes are simulated based on skill, or set to even par for the entire field (essentially skipping the hole for everyone).
You’ll find these Dynamic Round and Sim options in MyCAREER, then use R1/L1 (Playstation), RB/L1 (Xbox), or E/Q (PC) to select the Settings menu. Once here, use R2/L2 (Playstation), RT/LT (Xbox), or Z/X (PC) to select the round settings you’d like to change.
Training Scenarios
In PGA TOUR 2K25, you can participate in bite-sized training scenarios to boost your MyPLAYER attributes for that week’s tournament. These scenarios test your skill with the club, by tasking you to complete challenges such as landing on the green within a certain amount of shots or sinking a few long putts. Before tournament rounds, you can also compete in Practice Rounds. This is your chance to get the lay of the land before your reputation is on the line.
Sponsorship Events
Grow your relationship with Sponsors through photoshoots and media campaigns. Participating in these events will earn you Sponsor Rep. The higher your Sponsor Rep, the more Tier Points you will earn through play. Tier Points are the key to earning cool rewards from your sponsor, such as apparel, equipment, consumables, or VC.
Personality and Popularity
A new Conversation and Interview System lets you experience building a fan base as you develop your own MyPLAYER personality.After a MyCAREER tournament is finished, players will receive:
- Invites to press conferences and sit-down interviews with media outlets
- Messages from fellow PGA TOUR pros to compete in Rivalries
- Messages from major brands for sponsorship opportunities
Conversations
In every Conversation, the user can build out their MyPLAYER’s personality, which can be bold, reserved, or composed. We encourage you to pick the Personality that resonates with you; then stay consistent in the public eye to increase your Popularity quickly.
Sponsorships
Performance based sponsorship opportunities will arise that result in a change to the player’s popularity. Reaching each threshold of popularity will earn the user a chunk of VC to improve their MyPLAYER’s attributes, equipment, or apparel.
Dilemmas
During MyCAREER, you will be presented with various Dilemmas that can make a direct impact on the course. Do you choose to hit the weights hard and gain some power, or focus on mobility to improve your rhythm?Each decision will have a meaningful impact on your MyPLAYER’s attributes in the next tournament.
Quests
A new Quest system adds more depth to your MyCAREER journey—and the rest of PGA TOUR 2K25. This new system gives added challenges that can be completed to earn different rewards on a daily, weekly, or seasonal basis. To see Quests, in the Main Menu, MyCAREER or MyPLAYER sections, press Options (Playstation), Menu (Xbox), or M (PC) to bring up the Profile Menu. Then select Quests.
During MyCAREER, the main Quest is the GOAT Checklist inspired by the career of our legendary cover athlete, Tiger Woods. To finish this checklist, you will need to win tournaments, complete the career grand slam, earn fans, defeat your rivals, and build your brand by signing sponsorships.
