In Indonesia, the number of golfers is commonly estimated at about 200,000 people, though the figure varies by source and year. One recent source also says golf courses in Indonesia “cater to about 200 thousand golfers,” while another notes participation has been growing in recent years.

What that means

  • The best short answer is around 200 thousand golfers in Indonesia.
  • Another source suggests participation is rising, with a reported 20% spike among Indonesians during the sport’s recent growth period.
  • Because golf participation is not tracked in one single official public count, estimates can differ across reports.

Context

Indonesia also has roughly 100 to 180+ golf courses depending on the source and the year reported, which helps explain why golfer counts are usually given as estimates rather than exact totals. The sport is still relatively niche compared with the country’s population, but it has been gaining attention as a lifestyle and tourism activity.
