Of the 738 holes used in competition during the 2024 PGA Tour season, 24 of them were longer than 600 yards, with one of them being just 23 yards shy of 700 (and no, it wasn’t one of those played at high altitude).
Castle Pines, which hosted the BMW Championship, has three holes on this list. That’s not too surprising, given that the course sits at 1,950 metres above sea level.
The Grand Reserve Club (Puerto Rico Open), TPC San Antonio Oaks Course (Valero Texas Open), Vidanta Vallarta (Mexico Open at Vidanta), Puntacana Resort and Club Corales Course (Corales Puntacana Championship) each had two holes on that list.
The U.S. Open and the Open Championship each have one here. The Masters and the PGA, on the other hand, have not had holes of more than 600 yards among the men’s majors.
Here is the list of 24 golf holes that played over 600 yards in 2024:
