Venue

Katsuragi Golf Club

静岡県, Japan

Located in Shizuoka Prefecture, Katsuragi Golf Club features a 36-hole facility split into two distinct 18-hole courses designed by renowned architect Makoto Inoue. The Yamana Course is a strategic layout set among beautiful tree lines with distant views of the Suruga Bay, while the Ugari Course utilizes the natural rolling hills of the region to create a spacious, rhythmic round. Both courses are set in the city of Fukuroi and offer contrasting playing experiences within the same club. The Yamana Course presents a formidable test with a par 72 and a length of 6,960 yards from the back tees. Its layout is characterized by a distinctive arrangement of ponds and bunkers that challenge a player's conquest instincts. The front nine opens with a generous par 4 that allows for a free drive, but the green is protected by a large mound and significant slope. The back nine features a demanding par-3 11th hole measuring 166 yards from the back tees, which serves as the club's recommended target for proximity contests. The Ugari Course also plays to a par 72, stretching to 6,912 yards from the back markers. This layout emphasizes the natural topography, offering a mix of holes that require power and others that demand precision. The opening hole is a reachable par 5 that sets an aggressive tone for the round. The course is known for its generous fairways, making it suitable for hosting events, though the undulating terrain ensures that accuracy remains paramount throughout the round. Katsuragi Golf Club has a significant history in professional golf, having served as the venue for the Yamaha Ladies Open Katsuragi. The club continues to host various tournaments and competitions, including the Pro-Am Challenge and various weekday golf competitions. The facility maintains a strong reputation for hosting professional events while providing a high-quality experience for its members and visiting golfers.
