The Earth Course at Jumeirah Estates is a 7706 yards par 72, designed by Greg Norman. It offers a good mixture of strategy and "bombs away" golf. The course is deceptively narrow, with some of the fairways with generous landing areas. There are also some dangerous bunkers and water in-play on around five holes. A difficult and exciting closing trio of holes is the highlight of this course. The 18th hole is 651 yards long. DP World Tour Championship 2022 Betting Tips & Odds for the field.
