The Gary Player Golf Course at Sun City in the North West Province is one of South Africa's most prestigious and iconic golf courses. Designed by legendary South African golfer Gary Player, the course opened in 1979 and has since gained a reputation as one of the finest golfing destinations in the world. This 18-hole, par-72 championship course is known for its challenging layout, pristine conditions, and stunning natural surroundings. The course is unique in that it is a walking course only, with no golf carts allowed, which adds to the traditional and immersive golfing experience.
The course is set within the scenic landscapes of Sun City, a world-famous resort located near the Pilanesberg National Park, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding bushveld. The Gary Player Golf Course is meticulously maintained, with bentgrass greens that are fast and true, and fairways that are lined with lush vegetation and water hazards, providing a challenging yet enjoyable experience for both amateurs and professionals. The course is also home to the annual Nedbank Golf Challenge, one of the most prestigious tournaments on the international golf calendar, attracting top players from around the world.
Aside from the world-class golfing experience, the Gary Player Country Club offers excellent facilities, including a pro shop, clubhouse, and a restaurant.
