GOLFING IN SINGAPORE

 

Golfing is fast becoming a popular sport in Singapore. There are several private counrty clubs in Singapore which offer good golf courses and facilities. However, the prices at these private country clubs may be steep and therefore there are many who travel to Malaysia and Bintan to do their golfing especially over the weekend.
