Praising the significant efforts made by the Golf and Clubs over the past ten years.
Where the efforts of the Golf Association contributed to the increase in the number of golf practitioners, and it has achieved unprecedented success. And The game of golf is Western, so achieving this success in an Arab country such as the UAE is very impressive.
