I’ve loved golf since I was 12 years old and I am awestruck by these stunning courses and practice facilities right here in Doha. As golfers, both experienced and new, discover Education City, these facilities will undoubtedly earn a world-class reputation, worthy of a stopover in its own right. Privilege Club is proud to partner our miles with sport to encourage our customers to get out and enjoy all that Doha has to offer.”
