Amstrad golf fanatics can now enjoy a round or two on their computer courtesy of Leaderboard, now available for the CPC range on disc and tape. This conversion faithfully recreates the slick graphics and smooth ball movement which gained the Commodore version so much applause last year.

As with previous versions, one to four players can tee-off on any one of four courses. There is also a practice driving range where you can brush up on your line and length. The courses have various hazards including trees, bunkers and water which always seems to be in the wrong place at the wrong time - splash!

Once you've mastered the joystick controls, which let you alter hook and slice as well as distance, it's all down to choosing the right club and timing your shots. Only time will tell if you've got what it takes to be another Ballestaros, but after a few rounds of Leaderboard, you should find less of those embarrassing double-bodies appearing on your score-card! Another highly polished conversion from US Gold.
