You’re not alone if you struggle with the toughest hole at your home club. Or any club for that matter. Fret not, dear Golf Digest Middle East readers – help is finally at hand.

In the latest edition we launch our new ‘Be at 1’ series where club pros help you negotiate the region’s toughest stroke index 1 holes. We start at ‘Sea View’, the 16th hole at Saadiyat Beach Golf Club where local pro Jaco Stander has come up with a plan to tame the par 4 after suffering his share of heartache on a hole that can only be described as a beautiful beast.

We also catch up with Josh Hill, Toby Bishop and Arjun Gupta to see how the MENA Tour teens have coped with the coronavirus shutdown and don’t miss out on our revealing interview with Tom Rourke, the new man with the familiar face behind the General Manager’s desk at The Els Club, Dubai.

There’s driving tips from Tiger and Matt Fitzpatrick and a guide to the six shots you need to master to go low and keep shooting low numbers. Look out for Harold Varner III on the cover; the American opens up on his journey to the PGA Tour and also shares tips on scorching it off the tee.

And the best bit? The issue is again free to our loyal audience. You can scroll through the ISSUU link provided, download the bumper August 2020 issue FREE to your favourite device for later or fill in the form below and we’ll get a print version sent to your home or work address. Enjoy.
