OK, so it’s far from the real thing… but it’s not a bad attempt at it. An online golf game called World Golf Tour that’s currently in beta lets you play holes from the Ocean Course at Kiawah Island Golf Resort near Charleston, South Carolina. The free version lets you play a ‘get as near to the hole as you can’ game, but presumably you get various extras if you register. Fantastic, vivid graphics make for added enjoyment. Give it a try, but don’t blame me if you ending up wasting an hour. I played one quick round of 9 holes and got a score of 299.44 so that’s your benchmark to beat.

It is a realistic game. Paul, are you so easy to beat in real life? :P

Adi… I do believe it’s 2-2 between us now! As for a ‘real’ game, do you play? Now there you really would be in with a good chance!

Havn’t played this in ages now. Any other luxury travellers interested in a game?

I love going to Kiawah, but have yet to play golf there. Gotta put that on my next to do list while there.

Kiawah is a great area. I’m not a golfer, but the beach is beautiful. Just keep in mind that public parking is limited and on a busy day you might have to wait 15 minutes for a parking spot.
