Developed by DAMAC Properties and operated by The Trump Organization, Trump International Golf Club Dubai opened in 2017, marking the first new 18-hole course in Dubai in seven years. Designed by Gil Hanse and Jim Wagner, this championship course is part of a sprawling 500-acre residential project near Dubai Sports City. The layout has transformed a once-flat desert landscape into a challenging links-style course, featuring undulating fairways, deep bunkers, and lush greens.
The course includes memorable holes like the 8th, a short par four with an elevated, well-protected green, and the 13th, a par four dogleg left with an “island” green fully encircled by sand. Both the front and back nines conclude alongside a large lake in front of the clubhouse, offering a familiar and scenic finish. Additional facilities include a 9-hole par-three academy course, a floodlit driving range, and a short game practice area.
This modern desert oasis stands out in the UAE‘s golf scene, offering a distinctive links-style experience with a desert twist.
