  Singapore’s resort-dotted, attraction-studded and activity-oriented holiday island of Sentosa is a stylish and sophisticated golf getaway that offers sweeping vistas over a spectacular city skyline and the mighty expanse of the South China Sea.
Visiting players have access to the 6014 m Tanjong Course which after a $30 million upgrade in 1993 was nominated as Singapore’s best golf course for three consecutive years.
While it doesn’t rate as the signature hole I nonetheless particularly like the Tanjong’s elevated 2nd hole which features an island-like green and sweeping overviews of the South China Sea.
Demand is so great for prime tee times, however, that your best option for a relaxing game on this Singapore star is a weekday morning.
An illustrated feature on the great golf opportunities at the Sentosa Golf Club can be written on assignment from 1000 to 2000 words depending upon editorial requirements. A short ‘sidebar’ or a dedicated feature can also be written on the many things to see and do in Singapore.
