Frequently asked questions
Are these the real architects’ golf courses in GSPro?
They are community-built courses inspired by the work of these real-world architects, often listed under alternate names for licensing reasons. For example, the course inspired by Augusta National (designed by Alister MacKenzie and Bobby Jones) appears in GSPro as “Georgia Golf Club.” They are designer-created tributes, not official recreations.
Which Pete Dye courses can I play in GSPro?
GSPro has community builds inspired by several Pete Dye designs, including TPC Sawgrass (the famous island green at 17), Harbour Town, the Ocean Course at Kiawah Island, and the Pete Dye Course at French Lick.
Who designed Augusta National, and is it in GSPro?
Augusta National was designed by Alister MacKenzie with Bobby Jones. A course inspired by it is available in GSPro under the name “Georgia Golf Club,” and it is one of the most-played courses in the directory.
How are GSPro courses matched to their architect?
We map each simulator course to the architect of the real-world course it is inspired by, using the real course name behind the GSPro listing and the historical record of who designed it. Coverage expands as we map more of the directory.
