October Monthly Cup

Chitose Airport CC

北海道, Japan

Chitose Airport Country Club is a 27-hole facility located in Tomakomai, Hokkaido, Japan, situated approximately 15 minutes by car from New Chitose Airport. The course is divided into three distinct nine-hole layouts: the Hakuchou Course, the Sekirei Course, and the Oshidori Course. Together, the full 27 holes measure 10,457 yards from the white tees with a total par of 108. The course is designed to offer a challenging yet rewarding experience for players of varying skill levels, from beginners to single-digit handicappers. The Hakuchou Course is characterized by its diverse layout and strategic water hazards. It features a mix of dogleg holes and elevated greens, with notable challenges including a par-3 second hole that plays to a green guarded by water and a par-4 fourth hole featuring a three-tiered green. The course is known for its soft undulations and views of the Swan Lake, requiring precise approach shots and careful distance management. The Sekirei Course is a longer, tree-lined layout that emphasizes accuracy and distance. It features several par-4s and par-5s that demand long drives, with hazards such as out-of-bounds areas and narrow fairways testing the golfer's precision. The course includes challenging par-3s with two-tiered greens and dogleg holes that require strategic shot placement to avoid trouble. The Oshidori Course is distinguished by its sand greens and views of Mount Taruma. This layout requires a high level of short-game skill due to the unique putting surfaces. The course features a dramatic par-3 second hole that plays over water to a green closely guarded by hazards. The sand greens add an element of difficulty, requiring players to adjust their putting strategy and distance control. All three courses allow carts with navigation systems on the fairways, enhancing the playing experience. The facility is designed to provide a comfortable and enjoyable round in the natural setting of Hokkaido, with each layout offering a different challenge and aesthetic. The course is open year-round, excluding the winter off-season, and is accessible to both members and visiting golfers.
