Best Answer

There are a number of differences. The level of upkeep would be one, the fairways, greens, bunkers and surrounding areas are manicured to perfection to say the least. The greens are lightning fast. Most amateurs would struggle to keep a ball on the green if they played the same course as the pros. The courses the pros play are a lot longer, maybe 100 to 150 yards longer than a recreational course. There is a key distinction though from your question. There is no such thing as a pro Golf course, the courses the pros play are public or private golf courses which have been given championship approval. Courses such as Doral, Pebble Beach, Bethpage Black and Torrey Pines can be played by any member of the public.
