This game needs a connected career mode and would be a clear differentiator between it and the 2K game.
Part of the reason NCAA Football, Madden, NBA 2K have such a large, devoted followings is the existence of a connected dynasty/franchise. A key element in creating replay value in sports games is making the games/tournaments feel like they matter. In my opinion, the games matter most when you've beaten a full AI field + your friends. Couple that with stacking multiple years of tournament history, stats, and trophies on top of that creates a recipe for limitless replay value. Adding matchmaking so you can be "paired" with your friend when you desire is a must.
Online tournament modes are such a waste because the scores are so unrealistic. Online societies on 2K is lacking because you can't create a schedule, matchmake to play together, the absence of AI, and year over year stat tracking. Further, the larger societies feel like they've been manipulated in some way.
It seems like there could be the framework for a good golf game here, but to win the battle with 2K there should be a connected career patched in post-release or promised in future releases.
