Golf in Riyadh
In 1359H (1940G), employees of the oil company Aramco laid out Saudi Arabia's first golf course. Rather than build 'greens', the resourceful group mixed oil and sand to create 'browns' and the process was quickly adopted throughout the kingdom

Golf enthusiasts generally find their first game on 'browns' highly amusing, and more challenging than they first expect. The course is usually complete with extensive 'sand bunkers', and competitors are generally advised to bring a piece of astro turf for tee-off.

While some courses still feature 'browns', they are losing favor with local residents to the luscious, and more traditional, courses which are being built throughout the country.

Dirab Golf and Recreation Center is Saudi Arabia's first and only 18 hole championship grass golf course. Set in the beautiful valley below the Tuwaiq escarpment, the center also has facilities for horse riding, tennis and ATV tracks. It is a private course.

Valor In Battle
Hanging by my side was a sharp, well-made sword; its broad blade glittered in my right hand.
My fearless heart routs the enemy with it; it is my best companion on a dark nightâ€ڑ
I also carry tucked in my belt a crooked dagger that resembles a poisonous snake for my enemies, or a draught of cool fresh water for my friends.
