I thought Royal Troon was fun. Ball runs for miles so lots of the holes are very reachable without much power. It is very similar in appearance to St Andrews and Royal Liverpool though. Even just changing the sky texture and lighting would've helped with the variety a little. I live nearby so maybe I'm expecting too much of what my local courses look and feel like.
Valhalla was cool. It's good to have more courses with interesting course architecture instead of just wide open and straight fairways.
Augusta par 3 was trickier than I expected. Played on sim so was guessing the elevation. Had a couple spin off the green and into the water. That would be a great match play course...
Haven't played Pinehurst yet.
Big content update which is nice. Not feeling overly optimistic by the lack of feature updates though. I'm guessing it's just content updates hereafter. After a long wait since the last patch I was hoping we'd see something exciting like crossplay, proper ranked multiplayer, or a refresh of the tournaments. Or even just some critical bug fixes like losing tournament scores and head to head match play scores. Don't think it's overly critical to expect a sports game to be able to keep score.

I just saw the details of the latest update and looking forward to playing the 4 new courses. Augusta par 3 was unexpected but a nice addition.
I enjoy playing EA Sports Golf and prefer it over 2K23 which I stopped playing some time ago. I still think that Perfect Golf is a a notch above EA Sport Golf but unfortunately development of it stopped a few years ago when the two principal developers sold it to Trackman and moved there to take over the rendition of courses for their simulator.
Some features that I am still hoping to see in EA Sports Golf are the following:
1. The option to save quick and multiplayer rounds or the option of recording rounds that friends can play.
2. Replays with multiple camera angles.
3. Adding animated golfers on the same hole or other holes when they are in your line of sight and out of range. I disable the galleries and commentary when I play so having animated golfers would add to the immersion and would be a feature I have never seen in any golf game.
4. A true 3D environment where I can "walk" the course.
5. Statistics for a round such as greens in regulation, fairways hit, and total feet of putts made.
6. Hot key for turning on and off the green grid.
7. The option to disable the max triple bogey on a hole.
Thanks for the latest update.

A pleasant update, pleased with the courses added!
Disappointed to see career mode bugs still ignored. Proximity to hole stats for User golfers in career has been bugged since day 1 and CPU golfers driving distance is too short.
Store rotations still could be better. Why can't we just have a full selection of items to always chose from. Why the wierd rotations?
