There are currently 4 golf courses in Qatar with many more planned for completion over the coming years. The 2 golf courses that capture the majority of attention are Education City Golf Club which is the current host of The Qatar Masters and Doha Golf Club which was the previous host. Others include Mesaieed Golf Club which was created in around 1951 with greens made by oil and shots from the “fairway” being played off mats. Dukhan Golf Club is the 4th golf club in Qatar and is played off “browns” which make up the greens.
