Golf in Kyrgyzstan
We have 1 golf courses in Kyrgyzstan in our golf course database.
Although Kyrgyztan is becoming more western of a country every day, there is only one golf course in the country, located at the Maple Leaf Golf Club in Bishkek. The club was started in 2002 by Canadian expats (couldn’t you guess by the name?). The course is surrounded by beautiful mountain backdrops. The greens are a little rough, but think of it as an additional challenge. There are clubs for rent, but you may want to call ahead, quantities are limited.
If want to change-up your vacation a little, take an hour drive up into the mountains and go downhill skiing, (or just enjoy the snow if you would rather.)
Maple Leaf Golf Course
The “Maple Leaf” Golf and Country Club is a challenging 9 hole course located just 20 minutes from the center of Bishkek.
This 3289-yard par 39 course offers a spectacular view of Tien Shan mountain range.
Opened in July 2002 it’s narrow fairways and smaller greens makes the Maple Leaf Golf and Country Club a true test of any golfers skills.
A pro shop, driving range and bar makes for a complete day of fun and relaxation.
The Maple Leaf Golf and Country club is the first golf club in Kyrygztan.

FORE! Lee Westwood ball ends up in a woman's shirt !!!
Lee Westwood hooked his drive on the 13th hole into a crowd of folks at the Ritz Charlton Golf Course as a part of the Accenture Match Play Championship.
This is maybe not news but where the ball landed is incredible..... The ball somehow made it's way into a woman's shirt as seen in the video below.
What would have been funnier is if the lady would have taken a run towards the green and dropped the ball there or even dropped it in the hole :)
