Description
Gamers will select a team and square off to try and bring home The Ryder Cup for their squad in Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 11 on all console platforms. The Ryder Cup is one of the last great sporting events to be founded in prestige rather than prize money. Choose from the U.S. or European squad and participate in the various competition formats - foursomes where players hit alternate shots, fourballs and singles which traditionally bring the biennial event to a close with players going head to head. When playing The Ryder Cup mode offline, gamers will have the option to swap matches, thus giving you the ultimate control over the outcomes of other matches.
The Ryder Cup, a competition hosted by Ryder Cup Europe LLP and the PGA of America, brings together the best American and European golfers in a team competition format, and the cover of Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 11 is a direct reflection of the tournament - as Tiger Woods denotes the U.S. team and Rory McIlroy represents the Europeans. McIlroy, hailing from Northern Ireland and currently ranked 9th according to the Official World Golf Rankings, has posted several impressive showings early in his professional golfing career. Last year, McIlroy had five top 10 PGA TOUR finishes including a third-place tie in the 2009 PGA Championship and made the cut in all four majors. As an amateur, McIlroy also has a strong history in team play events, which include appearances in the Junior Ryder Cup and Walker Cup.
“This is a huge honor for me to be the on the cover with Tiger Woods as I grew up idolizing Tiger,” said McIlroy. “The Ryder Cup has always been my favorite sporting event and the tournament is being played at The Celtic Manor Resort in Wales in 2010. Also, I’m hopeful to have an opportunity to represent the European team later in the year - it’s all very special.”
Not only will players have the ability to participate in team play but they will now be able to take a team online* via the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. A first for the franchise, this all-new mode will allow up to 24 players to compete head-to-head as members of team. Team members can also talk strategy with their teammates over Xbox LIVE or PlayStation Network.
Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 11 on the Wii brings the links to your living room with two all-new enhanced swing mechanics while using the Wii MotionPlus™. The Advanced Plus swing difficulty will read rotation and swing angle while the Tour Pro swing mechanic assesses rotation, swing plane and point of contact. The Tour Pro swing features an innovative first-person camera angle from the tee box to the putting green called True View. True View creates the most immersive and authentic golf experience in any video game - you are no longer watching the golfer, you are the golfer!

"Awesome"
This is hands down the best golf game I have ever played. Well worth the money. The motion plus controls work great. You can go with the pro controls for those who want a challenging simulation experience or go with the standard or all play controls for a more laid back fun time. Ryder Cup is a cool inclusion. The online works really well, comparing your scores to the pros in real time is really neat. Disk golf and mini golf are nice inclusions as well particularly if you have people around who do not find regular golf that fun. The options and extras leave the HD versions of the game in the dust. Every time my mates with xbox and/or ps3s come over they ALWAYS want to play this game and they rave about how it's better than the versions for their systems. Highly recommended.

"Professional - more indepth than your basic Wii Games"
Not just a quick pick up and play – this takes a bit of ironing out and golf knowledge to play. If you are a serious golfer who finds other golf games within the Wii Range not challenging enough, then this one is for you. If you want to learn golf, then this is a very good way to start without doing damage on the real course.
"Awesome"
We absolutely love playing this game, the graphics are great. Time goes very quickly when playing. Well worth it's money. Recommend it to all.
"Good times!"
Start was a bit tedious going through all the steps, as I've played TW Golf games on the Wii before, but helpful if you haven't
The skill descriptors seem a bit off while playing, but the different settings mean you can set it up for any skill level and turn off the pesky bits that you just can't get right.
Well worth getting if you don't want to walk around an actual course for 4 hours :)
"**** Awesome game"
This game has already provided hours of fun for the family. I brought it for my partner who loves it. The graphics and options are great. Recommended for the golf lover in your family.
