KUALA LUMPUR GOLF GUIDE

Planning golf in Kuala Lumpur

If you are staying in the city, start by comparing KLGCC and Bukit Jalil. Glenmarie, Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah and Kota Permai lie to the west around Shah Alam. Check the drive from your hotel and allow extra time for traffic.

Busy during the day? KLGCC's driving range stays open until 10 pm and Bukit Jalil's until around midnight.

For a taste of tour golf, compare KLGCC, which has hosted the PGA Tour's CIMB Classic and LPGA events, with The Mines, venue of the 2024 Malaysian Open.

Weekend and public holiday tee times go quickly, so book as soon as your dates are fixed.

COURSE PLANNING

Before you book

  • Clubs with handicap limits

    KLGCC requires an official handicap of 24 or lower for men and 36 or lower for women. Bukit Jalil lists the same limits for weekends and public holidays. If you do not have a handicap certificate, confirm which courses and dates you can book rather than assuming weekday play is unrestricted.

  • Plan around afternoon showers

    A morning tee time can reduce the chance of an afternoon shower interrupting your round. Refunds and rain checks for interrupted play depend on the course and booking terms, so check the policy before paying.

  • You may be paired with other golfers

    If you book for one or two players, the starter may pair you with other golfers.

  • Dress code

    Wear a collared golf shirt with golf trousers or tailored shorts. Jeans, T-shirts and football shirts are generally not accepted. Check the individual club's dress code before you travel.

  • Submit your MDAC before arrival

    Most foreign visitors must submit Malaysia's Digital Arrival Card (MDAC) within three days before arrival. Singapore citizens and some other travellers are exempt. Check your eligibility and submit free of charge through the official immigration website.

ITINERARY IDEAS

Where to play

  • In the city: KLGCC and Bukit Jalil

    Close to city hotels, with floodlit ranges for practice after work. Check the handicap rules first.

  • Shah Alam and Petaling Jaya

    Glenmarie, Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah, Kota Permai and Tropicana are close together, so two different rounds on consecutive days are easy to arrange.

  • South to Seri Kembangan

    The Mines is laid out over old tin-mining land on the southern side of the city.
