Behind the scenes at Abu Dhabi GC & the HSBC Golf Championship January 22, 2011
We recognise instantly on TV the world famous 'Falcon' clubhouse behind the 18th green of the Abu Dhabi Golf Club, but few people are lucky enough to see inside one of the most luxurious golf resort experiences in the Middle East, venue for this week's HSBC Golf Championship.
Now we can show you a player's eye view of this iconic clubhouse, and see the facilities they enjoy at one of their favourite venues on the European Tour.

Quite literally a bird's eye view...
After a day holing putts, relax maybe with a little pool in the Players' Bar?
