The Jockey Club’s golf course, which follows the style of British courses, was inaugurated at the end of the 1950s. Eventually, the par 72 golf course turned into a tournament site, the fairways became narrower and more difficult due to a set of trees, and the design of the greens and holes surrounded by water came to be a true challenge for golfers.
