The Durban Deep Golf Club in Roodepoort, Johannesburg, was originally designed for sole use by the miners of the gold mine that bears the same name. However, since its initial design in the 1950’s, it has undergone a number of renovations and improvements, making it a lovely choice for golfers wanting to enjoy the warm summer mornings and clear winter days on the greens and fairways.
This is a public golf course that is open all year round, from Monday to Sunday. Visitors and tee times are welcomed, making it easy and hassle-free. The holes have been designed in such a way that the Durban Deep Golf Course is suitable for players at all levels – whether they are beginners wanting to practice their swing, or pros with a personal best to beat.
The pro shop at Durban Deep is well stocked, with knowledgeable, helpful staff to assist. There are clubs and carts to hire, for added convenience. While in Roodepoort, pay a visit to the Walter Sisulu National Botanical Garden or the Kloofendal Nature Reserve.
