Location: Dubai, UAE | Ranking: #43 — The Global Golfer Top 100
Type: Desert Parkland | Designer: Tiger Woods Design (2017)
Editor’s Note: Tiger Woods’s first completed golf course design is a genuine statement of intent — strategic, demanding and full of risk-reward decisions that reflect exactly how Tiger approaches the game. The course occupies the DAMAC Hills development and has quickly established itself as Dubai’s most thoughtfully designed course, combining wide landing areas with severely punishing misses and greens that reward precise approach angles.

Key Notes & 19th Hole
- Tiger’s Design Philosophy: Wide corridors that look generous but narrow dramatically on the approach; risk-reward par 4s and 5s where the aggressive line is clearly inviting but clearly punishing; greens that require approach from specific sides. Classic Tiger.
