Royal Kedah Golf Club

Royal Kedah Golf Club, the golf section of the Royal Kedah Club (Kelab Kedah Darulaman Diraja) in Alor Setar, is a 9-hole, par-36 parkland course with a long history. GolfPass lists its opening year as 1909, making it one of the oldest golf venues in Malaysia, and it sits in the Pumpong area of Kedah's state capital.

The nine measures 3,496 yards from the blue tees, and it opens with a 396-yard par 4 that sets the tone for a traditional, tree-lined round. The greens are cow grass, and golfers who want a full round simply play the nine twice. It is a straightforward, walkable layout that suits both quick after-work games and relaxed weekend rounds.

Despite its size, the club has a full set of practice facilities: a driving range, a pitching and chipping area and a putting green, with a teaching professional available. Carts, pull carts and rental clubs can be arranged, walking is permitted, and the clubhouse offers snacks and banquet facilities. Proper golf attire is required.
