Of the 738 holes used in competition during the PGA Tour’s 2024 season, 24 of them stretched beyond 600 yards, with one of them just 23 yards shy of 700 (and no, it wasn’t one of those playing at high altitude).
Castle Pines, which hosted the BMW Championship, has three holes on this list. Not too surprising, considering that course plays at 6,400-foot elevation.
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 this list.
The U.S. Open and the Open Championship each had one here. The Masters and the PGA, however, didn’t register among the men’s majors with holes more than 600 yards.
