Mission Hills Golf Club Shenzhen (World Cup course)

4-star: Above average course - well worth a visit.

Est. 1994

The World Cup course at Mission Hills Golf Club, Shenzhen was the first of the 12 Mission Hills courses to be built. Designed by Jack Nicklaus and named in honor of the 41st World Cup of Golf, which it hosted in 1995, it was the first Chinese course to receive US PGA Tour accreditation for major professional competitions.

The World Cup course still ranks with the best in the Mission Hills stable; at the Shenzhen resort centre it typically commands top billing. This tree-lined parkland course provides a wonderful test for your all-round game. In true Nicklaus fashion the layout is characterised by spacious fairways, plenty of water hazards and voluminous bunkering, plus several angled greens that put a premium on skilful approach play.

The Mission Hills Shenzhen resort centre is home to four championship golf courses (World Cup, Els, Ozaki and Vijay) as well as the delightful par-54 Zhang executive course. Just 5 km to the northwest you'll find the resort's Mid-Valley clubhouse, home to the Faldo and Pete Dye layouts. Another 5 km further on is Mission Hills' Dongguan Stay&Play resort, with another five championship courses (Olazabal, Annika, Rose-Poulter, Norman and Leadbetter).

A must play if you are staying at Mission Hills. You will need to be a guest at the onsite accommodations if you want to play any of the Mission Hills' courses in Shenzhen and Dongguan.
