Let’s talk about a fresh breeze blowing through the desert—Saudi Arabia is making a grand slam in the golfing world with a dazzling new partnership that’s set to shake up the green! Golf Saudi, the heart of the Kingdom’s golf scene, has linked arms with Topgolf Callaway Brands, a titan in golf innovation and fun.
This alliance is primed to sprinkle a bit of that modern golf magic across Saudi’s sands.
Topgolf Rolls Out the Green Carpet in Saudi Arabia
Get ready, because Topgolf is about to make a splash in Saudi Arabia with its iconic blend of competition and cocktail hours.
They’re launching three sparkling new venues in Riyadh, Jeddah, and the Eastern Province. And this is just for starters—more locations are on the drawing board.
If the idea of swinging a club while chowing down on some good grub sounds like your kind of evening, then you’re in for a treat.
What’s really cool is how Topgolf transforms the game. It’s not just for the folks who know their birdies from their eagles; it’s for everyone.
Recent digs by the National Golf Foundation show that a visit to Topgolf gets people so jazzed about golf that many grab their clubs and hit the fairway for the first time ever.
A Tech Twist: Toptracer Comes to Town
And there’s tech on the tee too! Golf Saudi is set to light up local driving ranges with Toptracer technology. This tech marvel lets you trace your golf balls’ flight just like the pros on TV.
Whether you’re perfecting your swing or just having a laugh with friends, it’s a game changer.
Decked Out in Gear
It’s not just about the venues and gadgets; there’s serious swag involved too. Golf Saudi has snagged the exclusive rights to distribute gear from Topgolf Callaway Brands—think Callaway Golf, Odyssey, and the stylish TravisMathew apparel.
They’re even outfitting the Saudi national golf teams. It’s all about stepping up the style and the game.
From the Big Shots
Noah Alireza, the big boss at Golf Saudi, is all in. He said, ““Our partnership with Topgolf Callaway Brands marks a pivotal moment for golf in Saudi Arabia.
Our golf infrastructure has been rapidly evolving and this multi-brand deal with Topgolf Callaway Brands will accelerate the game we love across the whole ecosystem.
Topgolf has brilliantly tackled the age-old challenge of accessibility, bringing joy and innovation to the game of golf for everyone.

Opening Topgolf will not only get thousands of people into playing golf and enjoying the health and wellness benefits that come with that, but it will also bring hundreds of new jobs to young Saudis, which is another part of our ambitions of building a far-reaching and sustainable golf ecosystem in Saudi Arabia.”

We have found a strong partner in Golf Saudi to help us bring our modern golf brands – Topgolf, Toptracer, Callaway Golf, Odyssey, Ogio and TravisMathew – to the region and help transform Saudi Arabia into an exceptional golfing nation.
This partnership will ensure Topgolf Callaway Brands and Golf Saudi continue to drive the game of golf forward into the future, working together to explore and innovate, and develop what comes next in the game we love.”
