JEDDAH: Golf Saudi CEO Majed Al-Sorour has hailed the launch of The Line, a zero-carbon urban-development project, as being the Kingdom’s most ambitious project to date.
Al-Sorour said the announcement from Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman about The Line, as well as other big projects including NEOM, was a blessing for world tourism and investment. It was also good news for the future of golf because the sport was associated with beaches, smart cities, and high-end tourism, he added.
“The clean, high-tech environment that The Line will create will no doubt allow golf courses to flourish due to their aesthetics, environmental development and consideration for health and nature in conjunction with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030. Turning the Red Sea Coastline into a hub for golf.”
