Officers Training Academy Golf Club
A 9-hole course (par 36, 2,649 yards, built 1962 per GolfPass) inside the Indian Army's Officers Training Academy at St Thomas Mount, Chennai. It exists to train and recreate academy cadets and officers; access terms are not published, and the academy itself publishes nothing at all about it. GolfPass gives its address as "Mohite Env. Park" — apparently Mohite Environmental Park, matching the Army's post-2004 convention of naming its golf courses "Environmental Park and Training Area" — and a green-book vendor independently sells a surveyed yardage book for "Army Officers Training Centre, Mohite Park, Chennai", which is the best evidence that a real, playable course is there rather than a directory-listing phantom. One proven caution: the contact number GolfPass prints for this course, 044-2435-9687, is actually published by the Tamil Nadu Golf Federation as its own Nandanam landline, so no phone number is given for the course. Nothing dated confirms the course's current operating status, though the parent institution is very much active.

More detail
What we knowEverything on file, and what the sources disagreed about
Not to be confused with army-palm-grove-golf-course, a separate Army course
about 12 km north-east on the Island Grounds at Park Town. The two differ on every
published measure — 9 holes / par 36 / built 1962 / PIN 600016 here, versus 18 holes /
par 72 / built 2005 / PIN 600003 there. They are not duplicates and should not be
merged. The CAG's 2009 defence-land annexure lists only one row for "Chennai", but that
annexure counts stations rather than courses, so it neither confirms nor refutes the
existence of two Army courses in the city.
