GOLF SITES OF CHOICE: In rating golf Web sites, YAHOO!
INTERNET LIFE writes that Golfonline.com "rules." The site,
which receives the top rating of four stars, features "well-
designed frames" which provide "zippy navigation through
'Golf Magazine's' vast resources, bolstered by the recent
acquisitions of 'Senior Golfer' magazine and the iGolf
site." Pgatour.com receives three and a half stars and
"best of all is the live reportage, including real-time
scoring updates." NBC Sports' and Total Sports' joint
venture, golf.com, receives only two and a half stars. It
"should definitely rock. Unfortunately, little separates
its content from that of a hundred other sites with lesser
resources" (YAHOO! INTERNET LIFE, 8/99 issue).
