POSTED ON October 4, 2023 @ 1:56 pm

Ernie Els has crafted a stunning course at Trump International Lido.

Bogor, Indonesia: Nestled among the lush landscapes of Bogor, the Trump International Golf Club Lido is intent on setting new standards in Indonesian golfing.

Crafted by four-time Major champion Ernie Els, branded under the Trump Golf label, and owned by MNC Land, the course’s enchanting location offers players a breathtaking experience.

“Trump Golf is thrilled to be part of this exciting new world-class golf course in Indonesia,” said Eric Trump, Executive VP of The Trump Organisation.

Blessed with cool, year-round mountain air and a temperate climate, the presence of the majestic Mount Salak, the iconic Mount Gede, and the serene beauty of Mount Pangrango, along with meandering streams and sweeping panoramas, paint a stunning canvas.

“Designing at Trump International Golf Club Lido has been an exciting journey, melding strategic elements with nature’s canvas to create a course that challenges and inspires,” said South African Els, winner of more than 75 tournaments worldwide.

From the first tee, strategic decisions come into play with fairway bunkers beckoning players to strategically position their shots, rewarding precision and offering optimal angles into the greens. This tactical dimension weaves through the entire course, transforming each shot into a showcase of skill and strategy.

With each hole at Trump International Golf Club Lido, Els presents a distinctive playing encounter with an array of challenges that include gracefully flowing water bodies, dramatic ravines, and strategically placed bunkers.

“Trump International Lido marries Els’ design mastery with the Trump Golf legacy, resulting in a golf course that integrates natural features while offering myriad strategic choices and diverse hole designs,” said a spokesperson for the club.
