Peter Cowen, Europe's leading teaching professional, launched the new Peter Cowen Golf Academy at the prestigious Emirates Golf Club in Dubai on 1st September 2002

Negotiations between Peter's management Company Peter Cowen Golf and Mr Mohamed Bu Amim Emirates Golf Club General Manager were concluded at the 2002 Volvo PGA Championship at Wentworth. (Pictured are Peter and Mr Bu Amim together with former European No1 Lee Westwood, one of Peter Cowen's pupils.)

Mr Mohamed Bu Amim, said " It is an exciting time for the Emirates Golf Club and we look forward to welcoming Peter and his team who offer an unparalleled teaching service in Dubai to our existing members and visitors to the Emirates Golf Club"

Peter's team of personally trained Professionals which will include a Lady Professional are looking forward to working with the Emirates team and are confident that people requiring the total golfing experience will find the Academy ideally suited to all levels and standards of Golf.

Cowen comments "Peter Cowen Golf recognises that with daily flights from the UK and the excellent hotels, weather and beaches, Dubai will become one of the 'must-visit' Golf destinations in the World and Emirates Golf Club is undoubtedly one of the finest facilities I have seen, it was my intention to use Emirates Golf Club as my Winter teaching base, but when the opportunity arose to have a full time Academy with my own teaching staff, I naturally had no hesitation in agreeing". Cowen will be spending most of his time on the European Tour promoting his association with Emirates Golf Club and will be in Dubai from October to December as planned.

1988

The Desert Miracle
That was the name given to Emirates Golf Club, when it became the first championship all-grass golf course in the golf region, way back in 1988.

The brainchild of His Highness General Sheikh Mohamed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Club was built as an attraction to the growing corporate sector and the then burgeoning tourist industry. Within a month of opening the most important regional golf tournament - the Pan-Arab - was taking place on the newly named Majlis course.

Designed by Florida-based course architect Karl Litten, the original 18 holes were built in and around the dunes of a beautiful site on the edge of the city of Dubai, donated by Sheikh Mohamed, on whose instructions, the desert flora was maintained, as it is to this day, in its natural state.

1989

The club's international recognition was confirmed in 1989 with the Club's first European Tour event - the Dubai Desert Classic. Fourteen years later the tournament reaches hundreds of millions of TV screens around the world every year, and most of the world's top players, including Tiger Woods and Ernie Els, have taken part in what is now one of the European PGA Tour's top events.

1995

In 1995 the club was voted the Favourite of the Year by the players of the European Tour, and in 1996 the second eighteen holes - the Wadi Course - were completed, bringing Emirates Golf Club to its current 36-holes.

2003

Today, Emirates Golf Club maintains its position as the leading golf club in the region and continues to meet international standards in every aspect of its operation.

As the original "desert course" in the Middle East, the Majlis remains in many peoples' minds a miracle - The Desert Miracle.

Emirates Golf Club has managed to retain the traditional Arabic warmth of welcome and quality of service, not just for golfers, but also for all members and visitors. And the facilities are not restricted to golf. With superb tennis and squash courts, an extensive gymnasium, a beautiful swimming pool, spectacular outlets and shops, the Club is a haven for sports minded people and casual visitors alike.
