Lanhai International Golf Club: Yangtze Dunes

Constructed along reclaimed land in the estuary of the Yangtze River is Yangtze Dunes at Lanhai International Golf Club. The club commissioned the firm of Ogilvy, Clayton, Cocking and Mead to oversee a massive renovation in 2018, re-doing all 18 greens with the goal of adding a greater emphasis on the links characteristics of the golf course. The course features undulating greens, all sitting low and blending better with the natural surrounds than before the renovation. The finale at Yangtze Dunes packs a punch: Holes 13 through 18 feature the most dramatic waste bunkers, intimidating sightlines and penal green complexes. Located just across the river from Shanghai, Yangtze Dunes provides an authentic links experience in mainland China.
