NES Open Tournament Golf is a golf game for the NES that features Mario and Luigi as golfers. The Japanese version is called Mario Open Golf and is different from the American version in some ways.
Gameplay[edit]

There are several different modes. Stroke Play allows the player to move up in rank. In Match Play, the player is challenged by a computer player. Tournament Mode gives the player the choice to choose Stroke Play or Match Play. Depending on the player's score and rank, they can earn prize money.
