Kuala Lumpur Golf & Country Club is a major golf course in Klang Valley, Malaysia owned by Sime Darby Property. It is located in Bukit Kiara, Kuala Lumpur.

The club opened in 1991. There are two 18-hole courses, the West course and the East course, both designed by Nelson Howarth. Since the 2006 Malaysian Open, the West course at Kuala Lumpur Golf & Country Club has undergone a total redesign. Nelson & Haworth originally designed the West course, which opened for play in 1991, but brothers Ted and Geoff Parslow of design company E&G Parslow and Associates extensively reconstructed the layout over a period of eighteen months. The revamped West course reopened in October 2008.

The club hosted several major tournaments. The Maybank Malaysian Open was played at the West Course in 2006 and 2010. It has hosted the Sime Darby LPGA Malaysia on the LPGA Tour in October since 2010. The CIMB Classic was played on the West course in 2013.
