PGA Tour 2K is a series of golf sports video games. The series was originally called The Golf Club and was solely developed and published by HB Studios for the first game. Maximum Games took over publishing for the second game.

On May 22, 2018, HB Studios reached an agreement to include a PGA Tour license in The Golf Club 2019, including six TPC courses and a PGA Tour career mode; the agreement did not include rights to player likenesses, while the PGA Tour maintained an existing license agreement with EA Sports for its own PGA Tour golf games (which had been dormant since Rory McIlroy PGA Tour in 2015, although EA still claimed to have an "ongoing relationship" with the Tour at that time).[1] On August 28, 2018, 2K announced that it had acquired the publishing rights to the series under its 2K Sports label.[2]

In May 2020, 2K Sports announced that HB Studios was developing PGA Tour 2K21, a continuation of the series featuring a more extensive PGA Tour license and other new features.[3]

In March 2021, 2K fully acquired HB Studios and the rights to the PGA Tour 2K IP including the PGA Tour license.[4] Further, 2K Sports announced a partnership with Tiger Woods that includes rights for his name and likeness to appear exclusively in the PGA Tour 2K franchise, as well as any other golf games published by 2K during the partnership term.[5]
