EA Sports enjoyed a mostly uncontested stranglehold on the golf genre for the past decade, but with its re-tooled PGA Tour game not set to tee off until next year, 2014 presents the perfect opportunity for a new contender to swing its way into the market. Enter The Golf Club, a no-nonsense take on the walk-spoiling sport that makes up for its lack of licensed players and courses by applying a more realistic feel to its stroke play and featuring a robust course designer. Yet despite these strengths, its stiff challenge and bare-bones presentation make it a difficult approach for anyone other than diehard fans of the sport.
Little effort has been put into the creation of Golf Club’s golfers themselves. Not only can you not play as any PGA pros, you can’t even play as yourself unless by remote chance you already look like one of the half a dozen non-editable players available. You can make slight alterations to the colour of each item of their clothing, but that’s it. Anyone used to the dizzying amount of customisation options and myriad of real-world club and clothing manufacturers featured in the Tiger Woods games will likely be disappointed with the dearth of player-tailoring options on offer here.
