Golf was once played only by rich and retiring people who had all the time in their hands. Not anymore though. Today it is played by people from all backgrounds. In fact the busier they are, the more they make time for it! Probably no other individual sport has created such iconic personalities as golf has. And of course no other sport is played in such picturesque surroundings as golf is. Come and play a game with your heroes or simply watch them play.
Ever since 1998, the prestigious Qatar Masters tournament, now sponsored by Commercial Bank is held in January as part of the European and Asian PGA tours schedule. Each year many of the world's top golfers compete on the club's unique and challenging desert-type Championship Course measuring 7,374 yards from the tournament tees and designed by Peter Harradine, one of the world's leading golf course architects.
