Hi Oyanglon,

Golf is very popular in Saudi Arabia. There are a number of golf courses in Riyadh such as Dirab and Riyadh Green which have full golf courses and Arizone and the Interncontitnental Hotel which have short 9 hole courses.

Fees vary on each course and wether you want to play on a weekday or weekend. Roughly speaking, you can expect to pay around SAR 475 to play a 18 hole round on a weekday. If you visit the club with a member, as their guest you receive a discount of around SAR 100. For more up to date information visit the website of your nearest club.
