Sentosa Golf Club (Tanjong course)

4-PLUS: Must play course - excellent standard; worthy of 4½ stars.

Est. 1974

Sentosa Golf Club (Tanjong course): Following a significant 2016 redesign by Andrew Johnston, the "New" Tanjong course is more than able to hold its own with Sentosa's renowned Serapong layout. Sometimes flatter, other times more undulating and on two occasions spectacularly elevated, the Tanjong provides a thoroughly absorbing and challenging golf outing, with many fabulous sea and distant island views to take in along the way.

The front-nine is played closer to the sea (although always elevated above it), while the back-nine initially hugs the jungle-clad hill that separates the Serapong and Tanjong courses. The front and back-nine closing sections both take you through an attractive parkland environment, where the many varieties of tree are never too dense as they line the fairways.

More than trees or deep rough, your main pre-occupation will be hitting the sometimes tightish fairways and staying out of the many water hazards; ponds, creeks and small lakes all play their part on a fairly frequent basis. The greens on this excellently maintained layout are uniformly large and undulating - getting down in two never guaranteed.

If anywhere in Singapore provides the opportunity for a "great escape" to relative peace and tranquillity, then Sentosa fits the bill. Add in two superb championship courses here at Sentosa Golf Club, and a 5-star hotel next-door, and there's little you'll want for at this wonderful Stay&Play location (although deep pockets will help, especially if you try to sign-up to play as a visitor on a weekend).

Did you know?

Sentosa island is one of Singapore's best places to relax - the Malay word Sentosa means peace and tranquillity. Here you can enjoy a wide range of activities, keep the family entertained and if you can, enjoy Singapore's best stay and play golf location. Sentosa Golf Club and both its courses have hosted numerous major competitions including Asian Tour events, co-sanctioned European Tour events and LPGA Tour events (see our Tournaments section >by Venue >Sentosa GC).

Sentosa's main clubhouse is one of the most luxurious and palatial in Singapore, and is complemented by a smaller separate clubhouse servicing the Serapong course. Alongside the Serapong's par-5 4th hole is a tomb commemorating Chinese civilians who were mercilessly killed there during World War II.

Published ranking

Singapore's best courses (Golf Digest, 2022):

Tournaments

The Masters: The 88th Masters Tournament at Augusta National sees LIV golfer Jon Rahm defend his title against the world’s best. Pressing hard will be world No.1 and 2022 champion Scottie Scheffler and world No.2 Rory McIlroy (April 11-14).

Chevron Championship: the women’s major championship season gets underway for the second year at its new Carlton Woods home outside Houston, Texas. World No.2 Lilia Vu defends (April 18-21).

Who's Who

Nelly Korda: records a perfect start to 2024 with five wins out of her last five starts on the LPGA Tour. Winning the Chevron Championship also brought the second major championship win of her career.

Scottie Scheffler: narrowly missed out on matching Nelly Korda's five wins in five starts, when he placed second at the Houston Open. Either side of that, he won The Arnold Palmer, The Players, and then The Masters and The Heritage.

Marco Simone Golf & Country Club

Marco Simone Golf & Country Club: With a clubhouse that might befit a Roman Emperor, and a golf course to match, you can be sure of a memorable outing at Rome's most talked about golf facility.
