Dongguan Phoenix Hill Golf Club ☆ Follow

Located at the junction of Pinghu Town in Shenzhen and Fenggang Town in Dongguan, the Dongguan Phoenix Hill Golf Club occupies a 27-hole layout established in July 2006. The course is built upon the terrain of former stone quarries, utilizing the natural elevation changes and abandoned mining sites to create a hilly routing. The facility is divided into three distinct nine-hole loops, designated as the A, B, and C courses, which are combined to form the full 27-hole experience. The A course is characterized by significant elevation changes and strategic hazards that demand precise shot-making. The first hole, a par 4, serves as a dramatic opener with a tee shot from the mountaintop that requires accuracy to avoid out-of-bounds areas and a bottle-neck landing zone. The routing includes a variety of challenges, such as the 370-yard par 4 on the 7th, which runs adjacent to Yantian Park and features a front fairway bunker, and the 9th, a wide but undulating par 4 where a downhill second shot reduces the effective distance to the green. Signature holes on the A course include the 4th, which is surrounded by lychee trees and features a steep bunker guarding the front of the green, and the 6th, where water hazards extend to the edge of the putting surface. The 5th hole presents a unique challenge with a tee shot that offers a view of the hole's end, often discouraging the use of a driver due to the risk of a difficult second shot from a slope. The 8th is a short par 4 that tests strategy, where players must decide between a driver over a right-side rock face or an iron to safely reach the green. The course design integrates the natural Phoenix Mountain landscape, with the clubhouse situated on the hilltop to provide views of the grounds. The layout is designed to blend with the original mountain features, using the topography to create interesting approaches and recovery shots. The facility also includes a two-story practice area and a training base, catering to both competitive play and skill development.
