The 2024 PGA Tour regular season spanned eight months, 39 tournaments and 738 holes of golf.
The official stats are now in, and the list of the easiest holes on Tour is topped by one of the most picturesque, a par 5 that plays to almost a full shot under par. In fact, all 27 of the easiest holes — and 48 of the first 49 — were par 5s, with No. 28, the seventh hole at Vidanta Vallarta for the Mexican Open at Vidanta, being the easiest par 4. The easiest par 3, you ask? That would be the 168-yard seventh hole at La Quinta Country Club. It ranks 133rd among the easiest holes in 2024.
Back to the top 10. The list includes courses in Hawaii and the Southern California desert, as well as those in San Diego and Los Angeles. You can see the full list of PGA Tour hole rankings here.
