"It is truly an honor to be selected as a member of the ‘Links’ team," Parnevik said. "I am truly amazed at how detailed and realistic the game is. ‘Links 2003’ is the next best thing to actually being out on the course. My kids are already looking forward to playing with me this holiday season."
To accurately and realistically duplicate Parnevik’s distinct swing and style, the "Links" development team coordinated a motion-capture session with Parnevik, capturing his signature moves from multiple camera angles. From driving to pitching to putting, Jesper’s unique championship-winning form is captured for all PC golfers in "Links 2003."
"Jesper’s addition to ‘Links 2003’ brings a new and colorful international twist to the world’s most realistic and enjoyable golf simulation," said Scott Lee, Microsoft product manager for "Links 2003." "One of the world’s best golfers, Parnevik is not only a popular player on the Tour, but fans all over the world recognize and appreciate his shot-making abilities. The ‘Links’ franchise is honored to welcome Jesper Parnevik to our family."
