PGA offers website

Designed with the avid golf fan in mind, pgatour.com was launched earlier this year and is the official website of the PGA Tour.

The site, with new features added regularly, already has proven popular with golf fans around the world. Presented by foundation sponsors IBM, Michelob, Buick and Titleist, pgatour.com is the only site in cyberspace with realtime scoring for PGA Tour, Senior PGA Tour and Nike Tour events. Fans can access the IBM Live Scoring button at any time during a tournament and receive up-to-the-minute scores of not just the leaders, but any player in the field.

The PGA Tour's official website is not just scores, though. The site has biographical information of players on the PGA Tour, Senior PGA Tour and Nike Tour. It also provides information about each tournament on the three tours, from hole-by-hole descriptions of the golf course to tee times, directions to the tournament and ticket information. And, of course, Michelob's 19th hole offers games, challenges and merchandise.

Pgatour.com also offers chat sessions, interactive gaes, travel information, video highlights, sound bites and tips from leading tour players.

To access the website, simply look for http://www.pgatour.com.
