The Majlis Course at Emirates Golf Club

The Majlis, which means in Arabic, “the meeting place”, is ideally named for the flagship course at the Emirates Golf Club. The Majlis championship course was designed by the famous course architect Karl Litten. The 18-hole challenging par layout, was beautifully constructed in and around the dunes in the outskirts of Dubai.

For the best golfers, the Majlis Course is a testing layout with innumerable species of flora and fauna, saltwater lakes and meandering fairways. This course also has the Majlis building located between the 8th and 9th holes. Most holes on the course have been lengthened over the time to make it challenging. The greens on the course are large and fast surfaces with difficult pin positions to make it difficult for a player to score.v
