LANG LANG GOLF
It has been a very busy start to the New Year at Lang Lang Golf Club with favourable weather conditions making the course a very nice place to be.
Lang Lang has welcomed a huge amount of guests and visitors alike over the festive period and it’s been great to see so many new faces around the club.
The course remains in top-notch condition and the freshly updated clubrooms or the deck provide a nice place for a cold drink after the round.
