Mardan Mamat (born 31 October 1967) is a Singaporean professional golfer.
Mamat was born in Singapore. He turned professional in 1994.
Mamat plays on the Asian Tour, where he won for the first time at the 2004 Royal Challenge Indian Open.[1] In 2006 he won the OSIM Singapore Masters, which was co-sanctioned by the Asian Tour and the European Tour. This made him the first player from Singapore to win a European Tour event, and earned him a two-year exemption into the European Tour.[2]
