A technically challenging course laid out across a vast area, rich in strategic elements.
Tsu Country Club is a distinctive 18-hole course set on an expansive property. While the terrain is predominantly flat, each hole features unique elements such as mounds, grass bunkers, and water hazards, creating a course that is both challenging and engaging. The course is set in a hilly terrain, thoughtfully constructed within a vast area, allowing ample space between each hole. Each hole is independently designed with distinctive features, avoiding any extravagant elements. Instead, the design embraces a classic approach, incorporating aspects such as greens without defined approaches, deep revetted bunkers that can fully conceal a person, and undulating greens. These elements offer an engaging challenge for advanced players. Strategic decisions are crucial, as many areas present both penalties and rewards. Players who approach the game without careful consideration may find themselves struggling.
Spanning approximately 1.6 million square meters of lush, hilly land, the course is designed to be thrilling and exciting. It boasts pure sand greens and towering revetted bunkers, achieving a remarkable balance between beauty and strategic complexity that stimulates players' desire for challenge.
Access is convenient, with a 60-minute high-speed ferry ride from Chubu Centrair International Airport. For those considering an overnight stay, the tranquil Sakakibara Onsen is just a 15-minute drive away, offering a perfect opportunity to relax after a day on the course.
