Justin Thomas is joining Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy — as cover athletes on a PGA Tour video game.
Thomas on Thursday was revealed as the face of the upcoming PGA Tour 2K21, which is set for a multi-platform release on August 21.
“Being chosen to be the first-ever cover athlete for the premiere PGA TOUR 2K game is a tremendous honor,” Thomas said in a statement. “I’m excited to join the 2K family and challenge players everywhere on the digital links.”
Thomas is one of 12 otherwise unannounced PGA Tour pros who will appear in the game, which also features 15 PGA Tour courses and real-world brands such as Callaway, TaylorMade, Bridgestone, Adidas, and Thomas' own sponsor Polo Ralph Lauren. PGA Tour events and courses spotted in the above trailer include: The Players Championship at TPC Sawgrass, Genesis Invitational at Riviera, Zurich Classic at TPC Louisiana, Waste Management Phoenix Open at TPC Scottsdale, John Deere Classic at TPC Deere Run, 3M Open at TPC Twin Cities, Valspar Championship on the Copperhead Course at Innisbrook, Valero Texas Open at TPC San Antonio and the season-ending Tour Championship at East Lake.
Gamers can make their way through a PGA Tour career mode, complete with FedExCup branding, or spend their time continuing to design, perfect, share and play user-created golf courses, as was the main draw of the now-rebranded Golf Club series in its prior releases.
PGA Tour 2K21 is 2K and HB Studios' follow-up to The Golf Club 2019, which was the first video game release to sport official PGA Tour licensing since EA Sports' long-running Tiger Woods and one-time Rory McIlory series came to an end in 2015.
PGA Tour 2K21 will launch on Playstation 4, XBOX One and XBOX One X, Windows PC via Steam, Nintendo Switch and Stadia.

TGC 2019 is HARD
Hopefully we get the 4 majors in there as well or at least a generic version with beefed up presentation to make it feel special.
Spent a few hours trying to recreate the Country Club of Louisiana and holy shite is that difficult.

The young man is one of the best. One of my favorite golfers to watch.

Multi platform being xbox, ps and pc? Wonder if that'd ever go to Stadia?

I was excited for this game but hard pass if there’s no Augusta National or any majors

I really hope they do better than EA did on that game. That last Rory Mcilroy game wasnt very fun. I preffered The golf club 2019 to it to the last few EA golf games. It was at least somewhat realistic. You couldn't buy your way into having bad arse clubs, you basically are as good as soon as you start playing skill wise as youll ever be, you can just use clubs that will perform better but are way more sensitive and more likely to frick up if your front to back stroke is off center at all.

Good for him, but I honestly haven’t heard of him. I stopped following golf very closely and couldn’t name an Auburn golfer right now either. Maybe if they start playing again I can regain interest.

Saw Rickie Fowler in the video as well. If the sponsors are who they are, I’d assume DJ and Jason Day as well.

Well you’ll probably get your wish with this being 2k. You’ll have to grind forever just to be halfway decent and that’s with micro transactions

You can buy your way to being Dustin Johnson.

I thought it would be a picture of him throwing his panties at Jordan Speith like a fan girl.

Spieth has been struggling. Justin has moved on...
