Getting there.... [Posted on 2002-02-03] There were a few nasty programming bugs in this software. I'm playing it on a fast new system with tons of space and a top notch graphics card, and it looks great, but there are a few real problems. First, it crashes. The whole thing just shuts down every now and then. Second, the announcers have only a few things they can say, and so it gets a bit monotonous. Third, they're often wrong, which is kind of interesting but a bit annoying (in other words, they say it breaks left but it actually breaks right...they say it's in the sand, but it's on the fairway). Anyway, it's generally a good game, but there needs to be some QA done by the folks at Sierra Sports. By the way, their big innovation is this True Swing, in which you roll your mouse back and forth to commence the swing instead of a standard 3-click approach. It's interesting and more challenging, but doesn't make up for the basic flaws.
This Game has Kept My Sanity [Posted on 2002-03-29] I'm retired from cancer. I'm mainly home bound and PGA Championship Golf has without a doubt provided me with more hours of entertainment and challanges that when a friend of mine had to retire as well I bought the game for him and now nearly our every conversation is about this golf game. We pick a course and see which one of us can manage to get par for the 18 holes first. As far as realistic, I can't think of anyway Seirra could improve it. But if they do, Henry and I will be first in line to purchase it. Now with 12 new holes I just see more time spent trying to tame the new courses. The golfer and his animation it a hoot and the announcer, well sometimes you wish you could throw your golf club at him. Anyone who wants to be a golf pro without all the walking, this is the game, thanks Seirra for not the hours but days of entertainment from 2 disabled Vets. Jeff

Still The Best [Posted on 2004-09-21] PGA Championship Golf is still the best golf sim for the pc on the market. While there will never be an updated version, four years after its release, it still outshines all other golf sims, in spite of the "eye candy" other games possess.
I highly recommend it for both playing offline AND online. And with over 1200+ add on courses available for FREE download, (including courses like Pebble Beach, Doral, TPC Sawgrass, Augusta National) you can't go wrong.
