It's easily and without doubt the best golf videogame experience in years, and one deserving to be thought of in the same light that "Madden" is to football.

Forget about all of the claims that Tiger Woods 2003 has realistic physics - it doesn't. But they aren't ridiculously bad and don't take away too much from the overall experience.

One of the finest golf games around. [Winter 2002, p.107]

In addition to playing on boring, traditional courses like Pebble Beach with the good ol boys, you can take on a quartet of kilt-wearing Scotsmen in the middle of the Amazon.

Great graphics, awesome sound and the commentary is hilarious! I havent really done the single player mode justice, but if I ever want to play someone in a multiplayer game, then this is the first disc in the tray! The fact that you can chuck on your own soundtrack on your cd player, then turn down the game volume and just chill out gives this game a easy, play late at night kind of feel! A really chilled out game!
Colin gave it a 10:
Simply, in my view the best Xbox game yet. Better than splinter cell, champ manager, panzar dragoon, even halo. The highest form of gaming fun yet published. Absolutely unmissable.

Really cool game, with lots of different options of play. the only downside is that its quite easy after a while, but its still a great multiplayer game!
