Maldives GolfMaldives Golf Association · Est. 2024
Unity
and
friendship
through
golf.
The national body growing golf in the Maldives — organising the Maldives Open, developing local players, and working toward the country's first 18-hole championship course.
Who we are
A national home for the game.
The Maldives Golf Association was founded on 24 July 2024 by Hussain Afeef, Ahmed Nazeer and Lars Petre, and is registered with the Ministry of Sports, Fitness and Recreation.
We exist to foster local talent, open the game to players of every background, and make golf part of what the Maldives offers the world — on the course and in the economy around it.
The flagship
Maldives Open 2026
Two rounds at Victoria Golf Resort in the Sri Lankan hill country — 520 Troon-managed acres above Victoria Lake, in the shadow of the Knuckles Ranges. Played 6–7 May 2026.
Golf in the Maldives
Where the game is played today.
Four resort islands keep golf alive across the atolls — fairways between the palms, greens beside the lagoon.
Looking back
The inaugural Open, 2025.
The first Maldives Open was played at Victoria Golf Resort on 25 April 2025. Pathmanathan Ramaiah took Division A; Manuel Tobles won Division B.
The Association later presented President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu with the tournament's symbolic jersey and plaque.
