Saujana is Kuala Lumpur’s championship club and the one most visiting golfers ask about. Its Palm course has hosted the Malaysian Open seven times, as well as Asian and European Tour events, and its two courses carry nicknames that tell you what to expect: the Palm is the Cobra and the Bunga Raya is the Crocodile. It sits in Shah Alam, about 17 km west of the city centre and close to Subang airport, so it fits easily into a business trip or a city break.

The courses at Saujana Golf & Country Club.
Palm course (the Cobra)
Ron Fream’s 1986 design plays to par 72 and 6,992 yards. The par-five 3rd plays downhill over a jungle-filled ravine, the short par-four 4th punishes a loose drive, and the par-three 5th has a small green with deep bunkers. The palm-lined par-five 8th has jungle on the right and a drop-off on the left. This is the tournament course.
Bunga Raya course (the Crocodile)
The club’s second 18, at par 72 and 6,819 yards from the back tees, with similar rolling ground and water. Visitors often find it easier to book than the Palm, especially at weekends.
The round, in perspective.
Both courses run through undulating, tree-lined parkland with ravines and slopes to climb.

Make the trip work.
Play midweek if you can, and ask for an early tee time: Kuala Lumpur afternoons often bring heavy storms. The Palm course is the one with the Malaysian Open pedigree, so book it first and keep the Bunga Raya as a second round. Bring your handicap certificate. Saujana is an easy add-on to a city stay, close enough that you can be back in town for lunch after an early round.
The club is in Shah Alam, about 17 km west of central Kuala Lumpur, off the New Klang Valley Expressway near Subang. Subang Airport (SZB), used by turboprop and regional flights, is very close. Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL) is further south, and the drive takes longer in traffic.
Where it is.

Somewhere to settle in.
The Saujana Hotel is on site, set among the fairways, and is the easiest base for an early start. Otherwise, stay in central Kuala Lumpur, around KLCC or Bukit Bintang, and drive out against the morning traffic.
Make a trip of it.
Kuala Lumpur has several championship courses within an hour, including Mines Resort, about 30 km away. For a longer Malaysia trip, fly to Langkawi for The Els Club Teluk Datai or head south-east to the Els Club Desaru Coast. In the city, the Petronas Towers, the Batu Caves and the food markets fill rest days.
Find your season.
Kuala Lumpur is hot and humid all year, with rain possible in any month. The wettest periods are usually around March–April and October–November; June to August and January to February tend to be drier. Early tee times avoid the afternoon storms.
Yes, on weekdays; weekends are more restricted. Book in advance, bring proof of handicap, and expect compulsory carts and caddies.
