The Faldo Course is Emirates Golf Club's second eighteen, opened in 1996 as The Wadi and rebuilt by Nick Faldo in 2005 to reopen under his name. It plays to a par 73 and stretches to roughly 7,300 yards from the back tees, with fourteen lakes threaded through the property and Faldo's trademark bunkering. It is also Dubai's floodlit course — a full eighteen playable well after dark, which in a UAE summer is the difference between playing and not playing.
