Virtual Golf, known as Tournament Leader (トーナメント・リーダー) in Japan, is a golf game for the Sega Saturn.

During development Virtual Golf was known as Tee-Off! (not to be confused with the much later Sega Dreamcast game, Tee Off), and also The Scottish Open: Virtual Golf, along with a Sega 32X version also set to be released as The Scottish Open. The 32X version was cancelled, and much of the original press material, involving extensive use of pre-rendered 3D imagery was not used in the final product. Development was also delayed - when first demonstrated, Tee-Off was expected to arrive in late 1994 or early 1995, but in fact did not arrive until early 1996. No versions of Virtual Golf made it to North America.
