For recreation, both expatriates and tourists, golfing has become a Dubai speciality. There are now seven courses almost all created in the style of Americas' best golf resorts and more are on the way - there are five more planned in the next two years. The Emirates Golf Club, home of Dubai's Classic, has hosted such famous golfers as Tiger Woods, Ernie Els and Mark O'Meara. The thousands of affluent Europeans and North Americans working in the country and golf addicted tourists, ensure that this sport will live on and even increase.
