Talk:Samsun Golf Course

First golf course on reclaimed land?
The claim that this course is the first in the world on land reclaimed from the sea is surely preposterous. (The claim was featured in "Did you know?" on the main page on 24 July.) Counter-examples: Eckaslike (talk) 15:47, 24 July 2017 (UTC)
 * There are several golf courses on the Dutch polders
 * Much of Mumbai is built on reclaimed land, including the golf course of the Willingdon Club
 * Several golf courses in Singapore are on reclaimed land, including the Marina Bay course and the courses next to Changi Airport

I agree. And it's not cited by anything. Fake news. 96.57.1.171 (talk) 19:43, 24 July 2017 (UTC)


 * Here is an example of a Dutch golf club on land reclaimed from the sea in Flevoland: Golf Club Almeerderhout. With all these examples of golf clubs on reclaimed land I removed the false statement in the article. Ekem (talk) 21:08, 24 July 2017 (UTC)
