The Course
The Faldo Course at Mission Hills is China's first "stadium course" and features the region's only island green at the par-3 16th. Measuring nearly 7,000 yards from the back tees, it's highlighted by mounding and earthen amphitheatres to improve the spectator experience. The 16th hole and drivable par-4 15th are two of Asia's most exciting holes and have played significant roles in many tournament outcomes. It is home to the annual Grand Final for the premier junior golf circuit on the continent, the Faldo Series Asia.
