JA Golf Course at Jebel Ali is a nine-hole, par-35 resort course in Dubai designed by Peter Harradine and opened in 1998. The course forms part of JA The Resort and combines landscaped fairways with original desert vegetation and saltwater lakes. Harradine's own project record states that the lakes affect play on five holes.
The course became associated with the Dubai Desert Classic through the Challenge Match, an exhibition staged at Jebel Ali from 1998 through 2006 and featuring prominent international professionals. Later resort development required changes to the original first, second and third holes, and Peter Harradine designed replacement holes intended to retain the character of the existing course. The resort provides golf instruction and associated hotel, restaurant and leisure facilities.
The course is a 9-hole resort golf course. Designed by Peter Harradine, the course originally opened in 1998. It is open to the public. On-site facilities include Driving Range, Putting Green, Golf Lessons, Restaurant, Bar, Accommodation.

Harradine integrated landscaped vegetation with original desert flora and two saltwater lakes, which his firm says influence five holes.
Construction of a new hotel affected the original first three holes. Peter Harradine subsequently designed replacement holes while seeking to maintain the style of the original layout.
