Tiger Woods Online is not free

Every round needs buying.

EA's new browser-powered game Tiger Woods PGA Tour Online is not free to play. Instead, you'll be able to pick from a variety of payment options.

You can subscribe annually for a lump-sum payment of £49.99, or monthly for £6.99. Alternatively, a single round will cost 100 EA Points, which roughly translates to 80 English pennies.

EA Points are bought in bulk; 1000 cost £8, 2500 cost £20 and 5500 cost £30.

Tiger Woods PGA Tour Online has launched and can be played from the official website now. Available are single, multiplayer and tournament matches, and each can be suspended and then resumed at any time you like.
