Tiger Woods Dubai course still on track
But work on the course, designed by Woods and originally due to be finished by September 2009, has only got as far as the eighth hole.
The developer said in November 2007 that Woods planned to build a 16,500-square-foot mansion overlooking the golf course that would include a gym, theatre, library and pool. Abdulla Al Gurg, who managed the project at the time, said villas and mansions were selling for $12 million to $23 million.
“Part of the project is sold and the other part will go to the market once it’s completed because we believe it’s better to do it then,” Al Malik said.
Residential projects worth $15 billion were either cancelled or put on hold in Dubai last year as developers tried to restrict supply to stem price declines.
