As long as you're able to adjust to the analog swing (which is a bit more sensitive this time out), Tiger Woods 2003 is certainly worth the money... especially if you're a golf fan. There's more of everything that made Tiger Woods 2002 so great-- more courses, more unlockable characters, more single-player challenges, more commentary, and better-looking visuals.
With a general lack of new golf games recently (Disney Golf doesn't count), Tiger Woods 2003 leads the pack.
Be forewarned, though: If you don't like-- or cannot get used to-- the analog swing, don't plunk down the money. The analog swing can be very challenging to learn, and it can be inconsistent. Also, the putting engine has not been improved... in fact, it's even harder than last year's game was. There is definitely a learning curve here, and it's bound to be at least somewhat frustrating in the beginning. If you don't like the analog swing, Hot Shots 3 will certainly do nicely.
Have fun, and good luck with your buying decision.
