Which golf club will you advise to join after the announcement?

For someone who is looking to join golf club, which golf club will you recommend after the announcement?

Looks like JB clubs are more enticing in the near future. Some clubs are Freehold not leasehold. Not sure which are FH though.

If e Iskandar region is open up and crossing the customs to and fro is no longer a hassle, then it's better to join clubs in jb.

crossing customs is always a hit and miss, for the foreseeable future even after 2040.

In Singapore, nothing is safe, especially where land is concerned. Remember Holland Road Detached, Semi-detached and Terrace houses with the long driveway that between 10m to 50m long. What happened? Road widening along Holland Road.
When a country don't have enough land you take from the people.

depends on your age

if you're already old man like me, 2024 and 2030 makes no difference

Bro,
You old man? Shocked

It depends on how long you intend to golf as well as the revised membership prices of the clubs after the announcement from MoL ... For instance, OCC and SICC membership prices will definitely dip downsouth ...

How come there is no mentioned on Raffles & Seletar Country Clubs? scratch

Agree on the OCC & SICC part.. I won't be surprised that SICC would lose another 18 at Bukit location after 2030...

Raffles lease is still running till 2028 but placed "Under Review".. Most likely scenario it'll be renewed till 2030-2040 too...

Seletar lease has been renewed till 2040..

There will be less courses, and more clubs to go after 2040..

With lesser clubs (supply) and increasing number of golfers (demand), where would the prices of clubs be ??

"There will be less courses, and more clubs to go after 2040.."

By this year I probably already left this world ler.

Laguna seems to be a good choice

where to get laguna?

Very Active Golfer Posts : 831 Join date : 2009-08-26

Laguna is pricing their membership at $170k now. Just approach their membership dept. they are actively selling their thru 2040 membership. They are returfing Masters course now and building hotel and driving range.

Last heard they are building an 18 hole putting course.

Short hitter should have loads of info

Thanks again for the info ...

This will spell the end of the journey for the potential local young and aspiring golfers who wish to turn pro to become the next Mamat Mardan let alone a Tiger Woods or a Inbee Park ... Crying or Very sad

I guess those who wish to train and become a tour pro may have to immigrate to cheaper cities like Manila and/or BKK in order to realize their aspiration ... Just like those Koreans before they became a full fledge tour pro ...

My apologies , I just realized that it might not be practical for most. Perhaps seletar is a better buy

Who knows.....maybe golf will be.like owning a ferrari car.....

Cant drive fast or.max out its full capability......but instead parade it in front of people to admire the clubs

It depends on how deep your pockets are since all golf courses in Singapore are on borrowed time.
