Golf is one of the most popular and respected sports on the planet, and its top performers are superstars in the eyes of fans. Many of these stars have found their way into the PGA Tour games, meaning you have a long list of incredible golfers to tee off with in PGA Tour 2K23.
The golfers in PGA Tour 2K23 have a variety of styles. You'll find perfect putters, long drivers, clutch chippers, and legends that can do it all. If you pick one of the best golfers in the game, you'll have no problem finding the green and sinking the ball.
10 Steph Curry
Golf is a fairly universal sport. Outside of professional play, there are plenty of people who partake for leisure. One such player is Steph Curry. The NBA superstar is known for his incredible three-point shots, multiple MVP awards, and championships won with the Golden State Warriors.
Curry makes his PGA Tour 2K debut with a cameo in 2K23. He's a very well-balanced character in the game. You'll have no problem sending balls down range and earning a good score with this baller-turned-golfer.
9 Will Zalatoris
Will Zalatoris is one of the rising stars of professional golf. He was victorious at the 2020 TPC Colorado Championship and placed second in his Masters Tournament debut in 2021. Then he went on to another second-place finish at the 2022 PGA Championship.
This golfer is one of the easiest to use in the game. You'll feel plenty comfortable stepping up to the tee with Will Zalatoris. His swing is crisp, and his accuracy is on point. There's nothing flashy about him, but he is a solid golfer in PGA Tour 2K3.
8 Tony Finau
Tony Finau was born in 1989, won the Utah State Amateur Championship in 2006, and immediately turned pro the following year. This came after turning down several college basketball scholarships to focus on his golfing career.
The 6ft4 golfer is a towering figure in PGA Tour 2K3. He has a ton of power behind him, making his nickname "Big Tone" more than appropriate. If you want to send the ball as far as possible, look no further than Finau.
7 Collin Morikawa
The 2020 PGA Championship and 2021 The Open Championship winner is a great golfer to utilize in PGA Tour 2K23. Collin Morikawa was previously ranked second in the world and started his PGA Tour career with 22 consecutive cuts. That is just behind Tiger Woods' streak of 25.
His power does leave much to be desired, but Collin has pretty good stats in every other category. You'll rarely miss a putt using Morikawa and the ball will almost always go where you want it with his incredible accuracy and timing.
6 Brooke Henderson
Brooke Henderson won her first major, the KPMG Women's PGA Championship, when she was just 18. The 2022 Evian Championship saw her win her second ever major. This propelled her into the conversation of being one of the best Canadian golfers of all time.
Her specialty is getting the ball off the tee. Brooke has amazing timing and swing path stats, which allows you to take an early advantage on a hole. There won't be too many adjustments to make with Henderson holding the club.
5 Lydia Ko
Lydia Ko was formerly ranked number one in the world of women's professional golf. This came just a few months before her 18th birthday, making her the youngest golfer in history to reach the top ranking. Prior to that, she racked up over a dozen pro golf accolades and awards.
She is easily the best woman golfer in PGA Tour 2K23. Her swing path is decent and her ability to putt from long distances without trouble makes her a very clutch golfer to pick. If you want to ensure the ball gets in the hole, Lydia Ko is a great choice.
4 Xander Schauffele
Xander Schauffele is a successful golfer who turned pro in 2015. That has led to seven PGA Tour victories and a gold medal at the 2020 Summer Olympics. Xander is an above-average golfer who can drive the ball down the range with ease.
If you want a golfer who can get to the green in as few swings as possible, Xander is the way to go. He's perfect for smaller holes that are only a couple of hundred yards in length. His hole-in-one capability is too good to pass up.
3 Justin Thomas
Justin Thomas took home the trophy at five PGA Tour events and the FedEx Cup in 2017. That was a breakout year that only began his success in professional golf. Thomas won the second major of the year, the PGA Championship, in both his standout 2017 and in 2022.
The former rank one in the world is an all-around golfer in PGA Tour 2K23. His weakest attribute is his putt path, but you won't need to worry about longer putts with his power, timing, swing path, and shaping.
2 Michael Jordan
Michael Jordan joins Steph Curry as another basketball player to be a part of PGA Tour 2K23's roster. Jordan's love for golf is well-known and is even how Bugs Bunny and the rest of the Looney Tunes were able to trick him into coming to their world to play basketball with them in Space Jam.
The icon has surprisingly good stats in the game. 2K Games clearly wanted to make his legendary status on the court transfer over to the links. Everything is pretty evened out, making him one of the most overall useful golfers in the game.
1 Tiger Woods
Tiger Woods is perhaps the most prolific golfer of all time. He was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 2021 with 11 PGA Player of the Year awards and 15 major tournament championships under his belt prior to the induction.
There's no better golfer than Tiger Woods in PGA Tour 2K23. Woods has unmatched power, putting skills, and accuracy. If you want to ensure victory on every single course you play on, you'll need to pick Tiger Woods, and he'll basically do the work for you in-game.
