The game is fun but way too easy once you get it. My best score for a single round on a tour is 48 at St. Andrews (24 under). Obviously not reallistic at all with driving / putting performance. Would be curious - what are the absolute lowest scores people got? I could not agree more with asherspapa more. The game is fun but way too easy once you get it.

I like the game mechanics, but would love to have seen more reasons to keep playing. Phone to phone gaming would have made this a must have.

First and foremost, it's far too easy. Once you accumulate enough money to buy up to the maximum levels in each of the skill attributes (which I did within a day), you can routinely drive over 400 yards (with the power boost) and sink virtually every putt. As a result, I usually score in the 50's...with the lowest record to date a 51 at St. Andrews (with a bogey). Maybe the scorekeeper can't deal with such low scores because in a recent tournament at St. Andrew's, I scored 55 (-17), 51 (-21) and 52 (-20) through three rounds (58 under par), but when I started the fourth, I had 25 strokes added--my score registering as -35. Of course, hitting a 53 (-19) in round four still gave me an "official" 54 under (which should have been 77 under), a 40 stroke margin over the field. While scores like that may be good for the ego, they destroy any competitive aspect of the game. Good game, but EA needs to toughen it up...reduce the driving distances (I can drive more than half of the St. Andrews Par 4's), and make putting more sensitive.
