{"product_id":"muthaiga-golf-club-nairobi-kenya","title":"Muthaiga Golf Club","description":"\u003cp\u003eMuthaiga Golf Club sits on the edge of Karura Forest in the Muthaiga suburb of Nairobi — a private, member-owned club with an eighteen-hole championship course that has been in play since the 1920s. The course was formally incorporated in 1943 and hosted the first Kenya Open Golf Tournament in 1967, a tournament that has returned here regularly ever since and has drawn players including Nick Faldo, Vijay Singh, Sandy Lyle, Seve Ballesteros, and Ian Woosnam.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 2001 the club engaged South African course designer Peter Matkovich, and the redesigned course opened in November 2004. The rebuild introduced several new lakes and water features — the club now carries more water hazards than any other course in Kenya — and the greens are widely regarded as the fastest in East Africa. Karura Forest runs along the boundary, and Egyptian geese breed on the lakes. Hole seven is a six-hundred-and-sixteen-yard par five with a dogleg; hole thirteen requires a carry of at least one-hundred-and-seventy-six yards to clear the water hazard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeyond the course, the clubhouse holds two bars — the 19th Eagle Sports Bar upstairs, overlooking the eighteenth green, and a main bar at ground level — plus a gym with weights and cardio equipment, a wellness spa offering massage and reflexology, and a café with a barista station serving coffee, sandwiches, and salads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMembership is by proposal from an existing member of good standing. The club also maintains reciprocal arrangements with clubs in Tanzania, India, China, France, and within Kenya.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"phasec-create","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43808524435515,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/6776\/2747\/files\/14026_2F5.jpg?v=1784350818","url":"https:\/\/plekify.com\/products\/muthaiga-golf-club-nairobi-kenya","provider":"Plekify","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
