Waterpan Golf Club is a 9-hole parkland-style semi-private golf course located in Westonaria on the West Rand of Gauteng, South Africa. Designed by Poen de Reuck and established in 1972, the course plays to a par of 36 and spans approximately 3,241 yards. The course is situated on elevated terrain with impressive bird-life and natural landscaping, featuring approximately 1,000 different tree varieties planted throughout the property.

The course accommodates golfers of all skill levels, offering an enjoyable challenge to beginners while maintaining adequate difficulty for more experienced players. The signature hole is the par-5 14th, nicknamed 'Jan Smuts' due to its resemblance to an airport runway. The course has a notable history, including having to reconstruct holes 2, 3, and 4 in 1986 due to subsidence issues resulting from the surrounding gold mining operations.

The layout provides a tranquil setting on the former Westonaria Gold Mine property, with water hazards and strategic bunkering throughout. The course benefits from well-established infrastructure including irrigation systems and maintained fairways and greens. No tournament history is specifically documented, though the course remains open to the public for rounds.
