ABU DHABI If it’s too hot for a game of golf in the day, then head to Yas Links Abu Dhabi to enjoy it at night at their sprawling floodlit facility. The Yas Links’ Par 3 floodlit golf course and practice areas (Driving Range & Putting Green) 9-hole golf course is perfect for those developing their game or wishing to unwind for the evening.

“While the 365-day sunshine is a great draw for residents and visitors alike, we have to admit the heat’s a bit tough during summer months. Golf has a strong following in the UAE among the local and expat communities, and the availability of night golf opens up options to keep up their game all year long,” said Carly Tjader of Yas Links.

“The floodlit course also provides time for relaxation with friends and families as it can be scheduled to fit work and school. As the first Links golf course in the Middle East, Yas Links draws upon that tradition for an experience of golf and relaxation with beautiful views from the Andalucía-styled clubhouse,” he added.

With the response for the facility already being encouraging, Tjader said: “Golf on the Par 3 floodlit academy course has increased since the summer has arrived. Now with a shortage of outdoor activities, ‘cooler’ night golf provides the perfect opportunity to come out from the air conditioning and enjoy a night with friends while improving your golf.”

Yas Links also plans to have exclusive night golf for juniors in August followed by more. “In August we will be having junior-only night golf at the Academy. From September onwards the junior rollup, junior development programme and junior competitions will commence,” he said.
