Quanzhou Cosco Golf Club

The Quanzhou Cosco Golf Club is located in the southeastern Chinese city of Jinjiang, which is located in the province of Fujian. It is located near the city on the foothills of Zimao Mountain, not far from the estuary of Luoyang River into Quanzhou Bay. From the center of Jinjiang, you can reach the Quanzhou Cosco Golf Club in about 20 minutes via the S 308 and the G 72, while it is also only about a half an hour away from the nearest larger city of Quanzhou. The club was founded in 1998 and has an 18-hole-course with par 72 and a length of 6,500 meters. Craig Lee Bertram from Craig Golf Architecture was responsible for the design of the course. Thanks to lights, 9 holes can be used for nighttime golfing. The course at the Quanzhou Cosco Golf Club has two opposite course structures. The front nine run along the banks of a large lake, while the back nine wind around the foothill of Zimao. There are some doglegs, many bunkers, and numerous water hazards such as lakes, ponds, and streams, which come into play at 10 of 18 holes. Out of these, 8 must even be directly overplayed to get to the green, which is mostly well-protected by bunkers. Thereby, hole 15, where golfers even must overplay a stream twice, sticks out.
