Java
There are around 35 golf courses in and around Jakarta with all the top tracks located inside an hour’s drive from the city centre. To the south, there’s the “Grand Old Lady” of Indonesian golf, the Old course at Jagorawi Golf & Country Club which debuted in 1979. To the north west, lies the 36-hole charms of Damai Indah Golf, where the Jack Nicklaus-designed Bumi Serpong Dami course and Robert Trent Jones Snr’s Pantai Indah Kapuk layout were unveiled in 1992 but located some 20 miles apart. Back close to downtown Jakarta, the modern 27-hole complex at Royale Jakarta has made a big impression since it arrived in 2008 with the West & South nines hosting the Indonesian Masters in 2011 and 2012. It was announced in early 2024 that Brian Curley was working on a new 27-hole course at Dhoho Golf Club in Kediri, in the foothills of the Gunung Liman mountains, close to the international airport, with construction led by Martin Moore from Flagstick.
