Disclosed herein are a virtual golf simulation apparatus and method that is capable of performing virtual golf simulation as if a golfer is frequently guided by a caddie during a round of golf in a real golf course and, in particular, the caddie reads the lie of a green and guides a putting direction when the golfer putts a golf ball to provide contents provided through the virtual golf simulation in a more active golfer-oriented form, thereby improving user convenience and inducing interest in virtual golf. The virtual golf simulation apparatus includes an image processing means for displaying an image of a virtual green and topographical information of the virtual green, a simulation means for performing golf simulation on the green, and a putting guide display means for displaying a putting guide which confirms the topographical information of the green on all or some of the area between a golf ball and a hole cup on the green in a virtual golf course to suggest a direction in which a user is to putt the golf ball. |
