The Singapore Golf Association (SGA) recognises that the recent announcement of four golf course closures by 2035 will be deeply felt across the golf fraternity.
While we acknowledge the Government’s important responsibility to manage Singapore’s limited land resources to meet national needs, we understand the sense of loss this brings to our vibrant golfing community.
Golf in Singapore continues to grow. Today, we have over 140,000 golfers playing on courses, alongside another 75,000 enthusiasts engaging in alternative formats such as indoor golf and short courses. Golf is an evergreen sport that supports health and wellbeing, fosters social connections, promotes biodiversity through green spaces, and builds national pride.
While these changes present challenges, SGA is committed to supporting our community through this transition. We will continue to work closely with Sport Singapore, government agencies, golf clubs, and industry partners to explore sustainable and innovative models that ensure golf remains accessible, resilient, and forward-looking in Singapore.
