I have to admit I have just LOVED my iPhone since I received it last Christmas. In my opinion there is nothing that comes close to it today. Apple just knows HOW to create beautifully effectives interfaces.

Up until recently I have not done too much with the App Store but since *discovering” it I have found a world of coolness – of course, not *everything* is cool but there sure are some gems (just ask my wife about “muddled”!)

One of these is Sports Tap (dubbed the ultimate mobile sports portal). It is an amazingly simple app that allows you to quickly “tap into” any sport you wish to. However, I use it religiously for checking golf scores.

It works like this; once you install the app on your iPhone you can tap on icons like: NBA, NFL, Golf, NCAA, Auto, NHL, NHL and others.

When you select golf you have 6 tours listed: PGA, LPGA, Champions, Nationwide, Europe and Canada. It shows a a summary, a beautiful, crystal-clear black on white leader board and completed tournaments.

Why I “digg” it: It is super simple to use. The folks at Sports Tap gave some serious attention to first what information is needed and secondly to the organization of this information.

I guarantee if you use your iPnone like I do you will never go back to these big horsey sites like ESPN or PGA.com or any number of others waiting for them to load (and load and load . . ) then trying to dig through all their stuff to find scores. I, for one, am done – and on to Sports Tap.
