From historic grave markers to high-stakes tournaments, this 18-hole course tests skill in Saudi Arabia
Golf in Saudi Arabia began here in 1949 with a simple sand course called Rolling Hills Country Club. Today, Rolling Hills Golf Club in Dhahran is a private 18-hole, par-72 layout within the Saudi Aramco residential camp, opened in 2005.
Its smooth greens, strategic bunkers, and wide fairways sit against a striking desert backdrop, while the 9th and 18th holes mark historic grave posts from the land’s past.
