Golfers don\u2019t need to hop on a plane to tee off on the sunlit fairway of California\u2019s Titleist Performance Institute. They just have to venture to the 40,000-square-foot PGA Tour Superstore at 2232 Route 70, where the shop will open this Saturday at 9 a.m.<\/p>\n

A major highlight is the golf simulation bay, where customers can cycle through a list of world-famous golf courses projected onto a screen and receive analytics on their swings, The Inquirer\u2019s Henry Savage reports.<\/p>\n

The sprawling store also sells gear, offers club fittings, and will have $30,000 in giveaways during its grand opening.<\/p>\n
