Yes, Valhalla Golf Club is available on GOLF+ VR. The Jack Nicklaus design in Louisville has hosted three PGA Championships and a Ryder Cup. In VR, the rolling terrain, Floyds Fork creek crossing the property, and the dramatic closing stretch are faithfully recreated.
Valhalla is ranked No. 19 in our course database. It is Nicklaus’s most ambitious public-access design — a championship course that rewards power and precision equally. In VR, the scale of the place is impressive.
Course Quality Assessment
Valhalla in GOLF+ captures the two defining features of the course: the elevation changes and the creek. Floyds Fork winds through the property and comes into play on at least six holes. In VR, you can see it. You know where it is. You still hit into it, but you know better than to blame the course.
The 18th hole in VR is superb. The uphill tee shot, the second shot over water to a green set against the clubhouse, the stadium seating that surrounds the green — it recreates the 2014 Ryder Cup atmosphere as well as VR can manage. The closing stretch from 15 through 18 is one of the best finishes in American golf, and in VR it plays with the same tension.
The greens at Valhalla are undulating Nicklaus designs with multiple tiers. In VR, you can read them by walking around, which is a genuine advantage over flat-screen sims.
How to Access
Individual DLC ($10-12): Purchase Valhalla standalone.

The Verdict
Valhalla is a strong addition to the GOLF+ library. It is not the most visually dramatic course on the platform — no ocean cliffs, no island greens — but it is one of the best tests of golf. If you want a championship-round experience without leaving your living room, Valhalla delivers. For the full platform course list, see the best courses on GOLF+ VR guide.
