  Wow, a map of Phoenix CC in Korean!

  Makes me wonder.....if Callaway manufactured equipment in Korea, would the exports be collectively labeled as the "Callyu Wave"?

  Sorry, couldn't resist.

  Is WGT still operating on the two new courses a year timeframe? It looks like the TruGolf partnership isn't going any further though. I'm guessing there's been no info on another new course at any time? Obviously we just got Erin but curious as to whether anyone knows if WGT is still pursuing non-US Open courses to be a part of the game.

  Indeed Sawgrass, as well as the other TPC courses, are stunning. Unfortunately, EA Sports currently has the "gaming" rights to these courses if I am not mistaken.

  I thought EA Sports was out of golf since they took down Tiger Woods Online.  If they still own the rights then maybe topgolf/wgt should ply them a visit & see is EA would like to sell the rights.  Even throw in Merion, Royal St. Rubbish, & Pinhurst.   Worth a try anyway.

  Correct Don. They have had the exclusive rights to all TPC courses since the mid 1990's and as long as EA Sports makes golf games they wont give up those rights. Sure they took down Tiger Woods online. But they just changed the name of their PC and console games to Rory Mcilroy PGA Tour Golf and are still making it.

  I wish EA Sports would have acquired WGT instead of TopGolf (Top = Tacky Outrageous Preposterous).  Then maybe the game updates would actually include improvements.
