Kelab Golf Seri Selangor
About
An enjoyable and reasonably priced championship course with ridiculously fast greens
Opened for play in 1998, Kelab Golf Seri Selangor was the first golf course in Malaysia to open as a public course. Designed by Ross Watson, this 18-hole, par-72 golf course measures 6,971 yards from the back and features undulating tree-lined fairways, numerous ponds, lakes and streams, and some of the quickest greens you'll encounter in Malaysia. Indeed, it's not an overstatement to compare them to Augusta.
The slickness of the greens can mean that what would usually be classed as a great approach shot can easily take one bounce on the green and be in the rough over the other side. If you're looking for a golf course to test your approach shots and putting, you'll have to go a long way to beat Kelab Golf Seri Selangor.
The pick of the holes, and the one which sums up the course up, is the double dogleg par-5 5th, which runs to 518 yards off the championship tees. The hole plays downhill, making it just about possible to reach the green in two if your tee shot avoids the bunker on the right of the fairway and the trees and pond to the left. The green is guarded by more water to the left, as well as bunkers to the front right and rear. A birdie is a possibility on this hole but will require four excellent, well thought-out shots.
Away from the course itself, facilities include a clubhouse, with changing rooms, pro shop and function rooms, in addition to a restaurant, café and banquet hall. In terms of practice areas, there is a putting green, chipping section and practice bunker.
Overall, Kelab Golf Seri Selangor is a very accessible golf course, with slick and challenging greens, available to play at a good price.
