Game On: The 2025 Golf Story You’ll Want to Read

Picture this: rolling green links by the sea, players walking in silence up the 18th, the hush before a putt drops. That’s the charm of professional golf—a mix of tradition, nerves, and athleticism. At Swigolf we’re all about that vibe: the look, the culture, the passion.

The Roots of the Game

Golf’s deep heritage is the kind of story that gives every swing deeper meaning. It’s widely accepted that the modern sport really began to take shape in Scotland. For example, in 1744 the “Gentlemen Golfers of Leith” set up an annual competition with rules drafted by Duncan Forbes.

Fast forward, and you’ll find the four major tournaments of men’s professional golf:

  • The Masters Tournament
  • U.S. Open
  • The Open Championship (a.k.a. British Open)
  • PGA Championship

These events aren’t just tournaments—they’re statements. Each one carries its own traditions, its own challenge, its own prestige. 

Why the Majors Matter

If you’re into golf, these majors are the ones to watch. They test players differently—links courses, brutal rough, high pressure. Winning one is a career milestone. Winning multiple? That’s legendary. These tournaments are the reason golfers train year-round, travel the globe, and commit to every shot. 

What Went Down in 2025

Now let’s jump into the good stuff—2025’s big moments in pro golf. No long thesis here—just the highlights you’ll want to know.

PGA Championship 2025

At the 2025 PGA Championship, world number one Scottie Scheffler pulled ahead and took home the title. From rounds of 69-68-65-71 he finished at 11-under-par and clinched his first PGA Championship, adding a third major to his collection.

What stands out: he didn’t just win—he did so in dominant style against a very strong field.

Other Big Moments

While full detailed winners of all majors aren’t included in our sources here, it’s clear that 2025 has been a year of big shifts and exciting finishes. (We’ll update as more data rolls in.)

For example, one source notes Scheffler’s rise in major wins and the significance of those events in the broader list of champions.

Why This Matters for YOU (And for Swigolf)

You might be thinking: cool history, good wins—but what’s the connection to me and swigolf? Here’s the link.

  • Watching top-class players like Scheffler raises the bar for what “golf style” means—on-course confidence, off-course edge. That’s exactly the attitude we chase at Swigolf.
  • When a major tournament is won with precision, nerve, and character, it’s a reminder that golf is more than just hitting a ball—it’s about expression, mindset, and belonging.
  • Our gear is designed for exactly that: the golfers who don’t just play, they own their game (and look good doing it). Whether you’re heading to your local club or prepping for a tournament, the right outfit helps you walk the walk.

Final Thoughts

2025 in pro golf reminds us that tradition meets evolution. The game’s roots run deep, the tournaments carry weight, and the stars stepping up now—like Scheffler—are pushing boundaries. For you, the avid golfer or the style-conscious player, this means one thing: stay inspired, stay connected, and let your gear reflect the game you love.

Whether you’re analysing major results or prepping for your next round, make sure your look says you’re ready. And when you slip into your Swigolf gear? You’re not just playing—you’re representing.
