Course Report
Anyang Country Club was the first in Korea to patent its own grass, Anyang Jungji, which is now widely planted on courses nationwide and renowned for its dense, upright growth.
About
Anyang Country Club, founded in 1968 by Lee Byung-Chull, is regarded as Korea’s Home of Golf. The course, originally designed by Chohei Miyazawa and masterfully renovated by Robert Trent Jones Jr. in 1997, weaves through mature trees and seasonal colors that challenge and delight. Its proprietary Anyang Jungji grass, prized for its playability, and storied parkland setting create a classic, world-class golfing experience sought out by discerning players across Asia.
Caddie Tip
Pay close attention to approach shots—dense tree lines and elevated greens reward precise ball flight. Anyang’s fairways tend to run firm and true but misjudged shots risk finding mature hardwoods, especially on the inward nine. Trust local caddie guidance for strategic lay-ups and avoid overaggressive driving early in your round.
The Main Challenge
The greatest challenge at Anyang lies in its tree-lined fairways and subtle elevation changes. Pivotal holes require intelligent club selection and precision control due to strategic bunkering and strict rough. Wind is minimal but navigating the final holes demands discipline, especially with water hazards and out-of-bounds lurking.
The Good
Golfers consistently praise Anyang’s mature forest setting, with diverse hardwoods that provide both strategic interest and cinematic seasonal color. The course’s heritage, exclusivity, and beautifully maintained turf ensure a memorable round; many echo that the unique atmosphere and world-class service rival top clubs in Asia.
The Not So Good
While conditioning is generally outstanding, some players wish for greater flexibility in tee times and guest policies due to exclusivity. There are occasional comments about congestion during peak season and requests for expanded practice tee capacity, especially for visiting groups.
