Golf Digest Middle East - October 2025

I dette nummeret

Welcome to your October edition of Golf Digest Middle East for 2025.
There’s something about this time of year in the region that every golfer looks forward to. The heat eases, the fairways fill up again, and the season truly begins. It feels good to be back.
This issue carries extra meaning as Golf Digest celebrates its 75th anniversary. For more than seven decades, the magazine has told the game’s greatest stories and followed the journeys of its champions. To be part of that legacy here in the Middle East is something we’re proud of.
Fittingly, our cover features Jon Rahm. His swing may not be textbook, but it’s proof that there is no single way to succeed in this game. Rahmbo’s style is his own, and it’s already delivered two major championships.
In our “Where to Play” section, we highlight Regnum Carya in Belek, Turkey. It’s a rare blend of resort comfort and championship challenge, and the sort of course that makes you want to grab your clubs and your passport.
Closer to home, all eyes turn to Emirates Golf Club for the Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship. It’s the pinnacle for the region’s amateurs, and this year players from the Middle East will be looking to seize their chance at history — and a place at Augusta National and The Open.
We also catch up with Dubai resident Tommy Fleetwood as he prepares for the first DP World India Championship at Delhi Golf Club, another reminder of how connected the game has become across continents.
Alongside the tour stories, you’ll find plenty of instruction from leading coaches and pros to help you sharpen your game as the season kicks off.
Wherever this month takes you — back to competition, onto the range, or planning a golf trip — I hope this issue gets you in the spirit for the season ahead.
See you out there.
