The Gary Player Country Club is a golf club in Sun City, South Africa, and is home to one of the world's longest golf courses, at over 7,000 meters.
The Gary Player designed championship course is widely considered to be one of the best in South Africa, and one of the world's top 100. Player has designed over 250 championship courses around the world, but this is the only course that officially carries his name. The club also has a Gary Player Spa, restaurant and pro shop. The course is one of two within the Sun City resort, the other being the Lost City Golf Course, with its famous crocodile hole, which was also designed by Gary Player.
In December of each year, the club hosts the "Million Dollar Challenge", one of the world's richest golf tournaments.
