Dongzhuang Beach
Dongzhuang Beach Golf Club occupies a former landfill site at the mouth of the Yangtze River, just 2 kilometres from the runways of Shanghai's Pudong International Airport. This internationally renowned club, accessible to visitors, is home to two championship layouts ... the Linksland course and the Parkland course.
As the name implies, the Linksland layout combines many of the rugged characteristics of a traditional links-style course ... without getting you right down to the water's edge. Along the fairways and around the greens you'll need to try and stay out of the pronounced dune-like mounds; their long wispy grasses make for testing recovery shots, providing you can find your ball. There's also a smattering of gorse and heathery effects, and opportunities to display your bump-and-run skills.
The Parkland layout, like so many in Asia, is simply awash with water hazards in the form of ponds and small lakes ... too numerous to count. Needless to say, many fairways and greens are flanked by water, while stylish bunkering also threatens on this well-presented layout. But the Linksland course is the one you'll want to play.
Private club - guests may only play if hosted by a member.
