 JAGORAWI GOLF & COUNTRY CLUB (JGCC) is Indonesia's premier golf facility and the only club in Indonesia that offers a total of 45 holes of championship golf divided over the Old Course (18 holes), The New Course (18 holes) and the Z-Nine (9 holes). Located in the spectacular natural beauty of the Cikeas River Valley and only 45 minutes from Jakarta's city center the club is conveniently located alongside the Jagorawi toll road at which it has its own exit and entrance (Karanggan - Gunung Putri).
The Jagorawi New course is said to be long and difficult. And maybe it is. However, with a choice of 4 tee boxes, players of every level of skill can find enjoyment in playing it. Twice the venue of the Indonesian Open, the New course is more open and wide. Long hitters can grip it and rip it here. The front nine is a nice exercise for what is to come on the back nine. Holes #11, 12 and 13 are definitely the score killers where accuracy plays a more important role than distance. Designed by the same tandem Thomson and Wolveridge, with the New course both gentlemen were able to create an equally interesting but yet different layout than the Old course.
Golfers that want to hone their skills will find JGCC a perfect place to do so.
In practicing, nothing is better than hitting golf balls from a surface that resembles "on-course" situations as close as possible. For that reason, at the JGCC driving range golfers are hitting from grass instead of from mats. Target greens at 75 and 100 meters will enable golfers to practice their wedge shots, notably some of the most important shots in the game. Putting and Chipping Practice Area
Right behind the clubhouse, the spacious putting practice area enables golfers to master the "short stick" to finesse. This practice area also offers room to practice bunker shots as well as chipping skills. Adjacent to tee box #1 of the Old Course, a second putting practice area has been created to not only practice putting, chipping and sand shots but also to pass possible waiting time in a somewhat pleasant manner. Club House Zakir, JGCC's owner and founding father hails from Padang (West Sumatera) and his wish to welcome golfers to his "golf home" has been translated appropriately by the architects into a design of ethnic significance.
JGCC's clubhouse is built in the so called Padang (West Sumatera) style and stands tall as a landmark amid the lush green garden environment that once used to be jungle-land. Telephone : (+62 21) 875 3810-15 Facsimile: (+62 21) 875 3806-07 E-mail:
