A Jack Nicklaus-designed tournament course in Shenzhen Guanlan, completed in 1994 and named for the 1995 World Cup of Golf.
Why consider Mission Hills Shenzhen — World Cup Course?
Mission Hills Shenzhen’s World Cup Course has a specific place in China’s golf history. Mission Hills China says it was completed in 1994, designed by Jack Nicklaus and named for the 1995 World Cup of Golf, which the operator describes as China’s first international golf tournament.
A tournament-scale layout
The operator describes a long course with broad tournament proportions, large flat-bottomed bunkers, water hazards and grass mounds used for spectators. It also publishes 87 bunkers, average green size of 6,125 square feet and average fairway width of 36 yards. These are operator-reported design metrics.
Keep Shenzhen and Dongguan distinct
This page is for the World Cup Course at Mission Hills Shenzhen in Guanlan. The wider Mission Hills complex spans Shenzhen and Dongguan, but the separate Dongguan courses should not be treated as the same location when planning hotels, transfers or tee arrangements.
The 1995 World Cup milestone
The 1995 event is the strongest historical reason to choose this course. Later World Cup references can involve the wider Mission Hills venue, so they should not automatically be attributed to this exact course without event-specific confirmation.
