Trump International Golf Club Dubai
Trump International Golf Club Dubai holds a unique place in golf history as the first completed course designed by Tiger Woods Design, the company founded by the 15-time Major champion. Opened in 2018 within DAMAC Hills, the course immediately attracted attention both for its pedigree and its distinctly un-Dubai-like topography.
Unlike the flat, manufactured layouts common to many UAE courses, Trump International features significant elevation changes — some of the most dramatic on any course in the country. Rolling hills, deep swales and sharp doglegs require genuine shot-making rather than simply hitting driver as far as possible, reflecting Woods's own appreciation for strategic, thinking-golfer design.
The par-71 layout stretches to over 7,100 yards from the back tees, with a demanding closing stretch that tests both nerve and execution. Water hazards, deep bunkers and firm, fast greens add to the challenge. The course rewards those who manage the course intelligently and leave their ego in the bag.
An expansive practice facility, short game area and golf academy complete the offering at DAMAC Hills, which also houses a full clubhouse with dining and retail. The course is accessible to visitors, making it a must-play for golfers wanting to experience a course shaped by the world's greatest player.
