Height: 170 cm
Weight: 95kg
Like: Being No. 1
Dislike: Compliments
A famous Mexican pro-wrestling villain. A special appearance on a TV golf show saw him expressing outrage. Viewers loved it. He's a showoff who's all about looking out for number one.. Or ersona. Rumour has it he's actually a nice guy.

Weight: 62kg
Like: Driving contests
Dislike: Details
The child of a golfer and caddy pair that rocked the Aussie golf world in their day. A gifted athelete from childhood, she has won several tournaments. As the top powerhouse in women's golf, her motto is 'hit it far' - just another example of the simple, open personality fans love.

Country: Scotland
Height: 195 cm
Weight: 73 Kg
Like: His bandmates
Dislike: Slumps
Born in Scotland, and said to be amongst the UK's top 5 guitarists. You might wonder where golf fits into that, but he claims there's no musical muse like a perfect impact. He tends to lose sight of everything else when focused, and can seem a little eccentric...
Unlockable:
Amy
Age: 26
Country: England
Height: 168 cm
Weight: 49 kg
Like: Leisurely drives
Dislike: Scary stories
Born in England. She's eager to cheer others on, competition or no. After picking up golf 6 years ago, she's become quite a talent. Kind and reliable, she's seen as something of an older sister. Her warm demeanour as receptionist has made many people regulars.
Expert
Xiao Ling
Age: ?
Country: China
Height: 172 cm
Weight: 51kg
Like: Casinos
Dislike: Indecision
Though a dealer at a world-class casino resort by trade, many also seek her out for private golf lessons. Gifted with lucky streak a mile wide, she always seals the deal when the stakes are highest. She's far more of a go-getter than her appearance suggests.
Max

Country: Canada
Height: 210 cm
Weight: 123 kg
Like: Wife and daughter
Dislike: Daughter's boyfriend
Canada's top driving contest champion. He casts control to the wind in favour of unparalleled power. Loud in both words and actions, he's also surprisingly quick to cry at moving moments. His wife and daughter are his pride and joy.
Unlockables:
Pandora
Age: ?
Country: ?
Height: 175 cm
Weight: 56kg
Like: Skilled golfers
Dislike: Poor golfers
Little is known about this phantom of the golf world, though rumours are abound. It seems she'll take on anyone to improve her standing, but has no time for nonentities. Often has a melancholy look during matches, which perhaps explains the mask...
Izzak
Age: 51
Country: Unknown
Height: 185 cm
Weight: 78kg
Like: Himself
Dislike: Mistakes
Rumoured to be of royal blood, he values decorum and tradition. His skills and fashion are both kingly. A perfectionist at heart, he views losses and mistakes as a waste off precious time. He lashes out at times but always appologises later. (Though that part is secret, OK!)
Courses
Maple Leaf
Kagurayama C.C.
Harvest Hills
La Provence
Al Arabiän
Legacy of Golf Links
Navigation
Main Menu
So, this is the screen that greets you when you start Everybody's Golf. I'll run through quickly on what you can find under each section!
Single Player
Challenge
This is where a majority of the game is unlocked, you are awarded points on a scale depending on where you finish, so finishing first will always achieve the biggest reward! In the top image you will notice stars and crowns, a star shows that you have finished first, a crown denotes you have won and achieved a pre-set objective for that challenge, so for example, the crown requirements for challenge 1-1 is to win with over 2000 points. Earning crowns gain bonus points and after collecting a few, will unlock characters in new outfits.
Points are increadibly important as this is used for currency in the shop!
You also unlock new shop items like new clubs/balls/ outfits etc by playing this mode.
Want to know the crown conditions for all the challenges? Check the spoiler below (Courtesy of minigol.shihiko.net!)

Stroke
After being unlocked in Challenge Mode, you are free to play the courses as you wish in Stroke Mode to try and beat you personal bests!

In training mode, you are free to get some practise in on the links! You are able to change all manner of aspects, like weather, tee positions etc. You can also retake shots which is great for perfecting your pitching skills!

Shop
Goodies! and lots of them, this is where you pick up all the bits and pieces to make yourself a better golfer, from improved balls/clubs to course unlocks (for stroke/multiplayer) you can find it in here along with things like concept art and soundtracks!

That is indeed incorrect - there are 4 Experts as well - you're missing Fatima and Isaac. Don't know how to post the pictures here but you can see them here: http://t.co/XsLJNqfn http://t.co/yNxdlRru
Envisager wroteSo there we have it, only a couple of Experts, so I'm sure there will be some DLC coming our way too!
