Quick: Name 3 active golfers on the PGA Tour other than Tiger Woods. I'll wait three seconds.

Two...

Done.
If that last trivia question didn't have you reaching for the aspirin, then you're probably a golf junkie (really, that's all it takes). You probably know all the Major Championships, every record that has ever been broken, and even what the review title is all about.
Ok, maybe that's a bit of a reach. But fortunately for you, being a know-it-all when it comes to golf trivia really won't help you too much in Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2010. That's right: you can compete with - and usually beat - your annoying friend who can't stop raving about Tiger's shot at the 2005 Masters, all while still maintaining an adequate social life. Hooray karma!
TW:10 is loaded with game modes and goodies to keep you occupied for hours, with 12 different golf games that can play on 16 different courses (and currently one additional course that is available for download). For the math guys out there, that's 204 ways to play, and we haven't even scratched the surface!
There is also eight mini-games that you can partake in, ranging from target practice to longest drive competitions.
If your friends aren't available to stop by for a round (or if you don't have any), you can always take any of the above mentioned game modes online and compete with up to 3 other players on the world wide web to boost up your virtual macho-ness.
But that's not all the online mode has to offer. You can also compete in daily/weekly tournaments against people from around the globe and even win prizes. The odds of winning such a tournament is tremendous, considering the amount of golfers in the playing field, but it's always fun to see where your score ranks among the world's elite.
You can also "Play-The-Pros", which puts you in the course the PGA Tour players are competing at for the current week, with live weather conditions and accurate scoring. If Tiger makes a birdie on 16 in the pouring rain, that score and weather will be reflected in the tournament. This is a pretty cool feature that gives you the chance to play in tournament golf without actually being athletic.
Even with all of this, however, you'll still find most of your playing time coming from the bread and butter of the game: Career Mode.

This is where you'll create a golfer from scratch, controlling the way he looks to the way he swings, and work your way up the leaderboards an
