Links 2001 is a golf video game developed and published by Microsoft. It is part of the Links series and follows Links LS 2000. It is the first game in the series to include a golf course designer, allowing the player to create custom courses. It also features Arnold Palmer, Sergio García, and Annika Sörenstam as playable golfers.
It was released for Microsoft Windows in October 2000, and received "generally favorable reviews" according to Metacritic. Critics praised the graphics, game physics, and the addition of a course designer, but the game's voice-overs were criticized, particularly those of García and Sörenstam. The game sold an estimated 240,000 copies in the United States.
Links Expansion Pack, released in May 2001, offers additional features for the game. Links Championship Edition, released in September 2001, consists of Links 2001 and the expansion pack.
