Laid out along a four-mile stretch of coastline by the Sea of Oman, The Wave is an ambitious resort project (embracing hotels, retail outlets and housing) to the west of Muscat, developed by Majid Al Futtaim Properties and the Government of the Sultanate of Oman.
A number of leisure facilities, such as the 400-berth marina, have been incorporated into The Wave master plan, which has as its spectacular centrepiece Al Mouj, a wonderful Greg Norman-designed golf complex that features both a championship 18-hole course (opened in September 2012) and a floodlit 9-hole par three layout.
Mubarak Hill, Sales & Marketing Manager for Al Mouj Golf, commented as follows:
"The toughest hole on the card is the 9th, it's a great conclusion to the front nine where only your best tee shot will give you an opportunity to chase the flag with your approach. The fairway itself is generous and banks away from the coastline but the true test of this hole are the greenside bunkers that dominate the last sixty yards and these must be avoided in order to finish your round safely.
The signature hole here is the 11th, a truly stunning par three that’s played against a mesmerizing azure backdrop. From the back tees hole requires a long iron or fairway wood to find the expansive putting surface. Be sure to factor in the wind when selecting your club as both the tee and green are elevated."
Al Mouj Golf hosted the inaugural NBO Open in February 2018 when Al Mouj and the nation made the step up from the Challenge Tour's Road to Oman to the main European Tour. Dutchman Joost Luiten got the better of England's Chris Wood to lift the title. The weather-impacted 2019 Oman Open saw America’s Kurt Kitayama emerge victorious, and Finland’s Sami Valimaki won the 2020 event to claim his maiden European Tour title.
