Golden Tee Golf is a golf game based on the arcade game Peter Jacobsen's Golden Tee '97, but with some differences such as three additional courses for the PlayStation version. The PlayStation version also contains extra modes and an overview of the holes. The trackball support is replaced by holding down the D-Pad to adjust the power of the backswing.
The gameplay involves playing golf with various characters, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. The objective is to hit the ball into a hole in as few strokes as possible. Players can use different clubs to control the distance and accuracy of their shots.
