Kuala Lumpur

Kuala Lumpur and the Klang Valley have dozens of golf clubs, and many take visitors at reasonable weekday rates. Saujana Golf & Country Club near Subang has two Ronald Fream courses, Glenmarie offers 36 holes in Shah Alam, and Palm Garden in Putrajaya pairs an 18-hole course with a two-storey driving range that stays open until midnight. Kota Permai, Kelab Golf Seri Selangor and the Jack Nicklaus-designed Sungai Long round out the list.

For practice, the KLGCC Driving Range in Bukit Kiara has three tiers of TrackMan bays and runs into the evening. Indoor golf is booming too, with MST Golf Arena at The Gardens Mall, Sim Golf Malaysia in Mont Kiara and Wedge Range in Petaling Jaya. Weekday visitor fees usually exclude the buggy and caddie, so check each listing.
