Summary
We would say that Tiger Woods returns for another serene round of golf, but the competition is anything but mild-mannered. Everyone wants to bring home the desired Ryder Cup back to their trophy cabinet, and with the tournament founded in prestige rather than prize money winning is also a matter of pride.
The Ryder Cup is a contest hosted by both Ryder Cup Europe LLP and the PGA of America, making this game a direct reflection of the international rivalry that will heat up. While Tiger Woods makes the play for the Americans, Northern Ireland star Rory McIlroy is leading the charge for the European side.
And as you would expect, the competition is fierce. Select a side and participate in various gameplay formats – from foursomes, where players hit alternate shots, leading into fourball matches and finishing of with the one-on-one singles games where international stars are made or broken. Team play and single play is available for those who want to enjoy virtual golf alone or with friends.
Using the Wii Remote to act out your drives is even easier thanks to two enhanced swing mechanics via the MotionPlus. Advanced Plus will read your rotation and swing angle, while Tour Pro assesses rotation, swing plane and point of contact. You can even launch into a first-person view from the tee box to the putting green to help make your shot easier.
