This is a great game which lets you experience the nerves, frustration, and satifaction of playing a brutal links course (Royal Troon, the only one they give you) against stiff competion. The Announcers are fun and exciting, and you can be one of PGA Stars (Jesper Parnevik, David Duval, Vijah Singh, Jeff Sluman are among the best.) You can play a variety of weather and course conditions. The only mistake is that you can only play one course Royal Troon(Home of the 1997 Open). Trying to hit the 17th green not only gets old but somewhat impossible in touramentconditions.

It may get tough to play this game as computers are getting faster and faster. The Windows 2000 emulation works for me on Vista. As it is now, all is well. Best software golf game of all times. Biggest frustration is most people bought the Softkey, bargin bin version that included only the Royal Troon course. It is quite a challenge, no make that impossible, to find the original retail box with 2 cd's and St. Andrews. I was lucky enough to find my second copy for $9.99 years ago at Office Depot. Once you get the disk make sure you download the patch, still available. It animates the crowd. Fantastic game. If I had 5 million dollars, I would hire everyone back to create U.S. Open Championship Golf.

My all-time favorite golf game. I owned the original game but lost it in a fire. The biggest (only) problem is the Old Course isn't included, as it was in the original. Wish it would be sold as an add-on as it was well worth it.
