'''Arnold Palmer Tournament Golf''' is a [[golf]] game for the [[Sega Genesis|Sega Mega Drive/Genesis]]. It was known as {{nihongo|'''Naomichi Ozaki Super Masters'''|尾崎直道スーパーマスターズ|Ozaki Naomichi Super Masters}} in Japan. Like many golfing sims of the 16-bit era, the game projects a flat 3D plane of the course that the player can use to determine the direction of their next shot. The game has three courses for the player to choose from: a Japanese course, a USA course and a UK course. | |||

It is one of the early [[Sega]] sports games where a celebrity athlete's name was added to the title when it was localized from Japan (the other two games being ''[[Tommy Lasorda Baseball]]'' and ''[[Pat Riley Basketball]]''). Although Arnold Palmer is shown on the box cover and at the title screen, the game makes no reference to him during the actual golf game play. In Japan, it was endorsed by celebrity pro-golfer Ozaki Naomichi. In 1990, the game was ported to [[Amiga]], [[Atari ST]], and [[MS-DOS]] personal computers, courtesy of developer [[Motivetime]] and publisher [[Elite Systems]], and with Palmer's celebrity endorsement notably removed. | It is one of the early [[Sega]] sports games where a celebrity athlete's name was added to the title when it was localized from Japan (the other two games being ''[[Tommy Lasorda Baseball]]'' and ''[[Pat Riley Basketball]]'').

Pressing the start button allows the player to change the music and also whether he hears a cheer from the gallery or not upon completing a hole. Opa-Opa, the player-character from the ''[[Fantasy Zone]]'' series, is the cursor in the pause menu. Also, a trick allows the player to play a secret ''Fantasy Zone'' level by hitting the ball 100 times on the first hole of any course without holing out, then entering up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, and A on the game over screen. The special level freezes after a certain number of enemies are killed. However, it is impossible to return to the golf game without resetting the system. In addition, [[Alex Kidd]] makes appearances in the Tournament Mode after nine holes have been played in each round (called "Coffee Breaks"). | Pressing the start button allows the player to change the music and also whether he hears a cheer from the gallery or not upon completing a hole.
