The Venues

Three world-class courses, one Rolex Series week

The Els Club01

Round 1 · Monday 25 January

The Els Club

A multi-award-winning course, recently recognised as the Best Golf Course in Dubai 2024 by the World Golf Awards and Best Luxury Golfing Destination in the Middle East at the Global 100 Awards 2024.

Designed by multi-major winner Ernie Els, The Els Club opened in April 2008 to critical acclaim — not only for its design but for its playability — and is now regarded as one of the best courses in Dubai. Located in the exclusive Dubai Sports City and measuring in excess of 7,500 yards from the championship tees, it was designed with tournament play in mind. If that seems a little much, the forward tees measure a more manageable 6,200 yards and provide a great test for any golfer.

  • Best Golf Course in Dubai 2024 — World Golf Awards
  • Designed by Ernie Els, opened April 2008
  • 7,500+ yards from the championship tees
  • Forward tees measure 6,200 yards
Yas Links, Abu Dhabi02

Round 2 · Tuesday 26 January

Yas Links, Abu Dhabi

Set on the water's edge with dramatic views of the Arabian Gulf, Yas Links Abu Dhabi is the first true links golf course in the Middle East and home of the Abu Dhabi Championship — a Rolex Series event on the DP World Tour.

The 18-hole championship course was designed by Kyle Phillips. Ranked within the Golf Digest Top 100 Golf Courses in the world and the Middle East's No.1 golf course, this is a golfing treat that has gained a worldwide reputation.

  • The Middle East's No.1 golf course
  • Inside the Golf Digest Top 100 in the world
  • First true links course in the Middle East
  • Home of the Abu Dhabi Championship
Emirates Golf Club — Majlis Course03

Round 3 · Wednesday 27 January

Emirates Golf Club — Majlis Course

When Emirates Golf Club opened in 1988 it became the first all-grass championship course in the Gulf, quickly earning the nickname 'the desert miracle'. Today, with Dubai firmly established as a top winter-sun golf destination, Emirates still feels like the city's headline venue.

The star of the show is the Majlis — a proper bucket-list backdrop with the skyline sitting right there behind you, and the long-time home of the Hero Dubai Desert Classic. Tiger, McIlroy and Seve have all won here, which tells you everything you need to know about the calibre of the test.

  • The Gulf's first all-grass championship course, 1988
  • Long-time home of the Hero Dubai Desert Classic
  • Past winners include Tiger, McIlroy and Seve
  • Our final round, followed by presentation lunch
