About the Course
Royal Johor is one of Malaysia's big courses and favours long hitters. The second nine is longer and possibly more difficult. Among the most interesting holes are the 5th, 8th, 12th, 16th and 18th. The round ends with a 452 yards uphill par 4, which is hard to reach in regulation.
Venue for the 2007 Johor Classic, July 5-8 and the IRDA Johor Open Aug 16 - 19.
