Awali Golf Club

About the club

The course is a desert course; the ground is very hard - levelled rock with an occasional layer of compacted sand and sea-shells. You may use a committee approved mat to protect your golf clubs, but for formal competitions, a mat's use is only allowed on fairways and teeing grounds. Fairways are demarked by a black oiled line: a ball touching the fairway line is on the fairway. In a friendly, it's up to you and your playing partners whether you choose to use your mat outside the fairway as well.
