Woo Jeong Hills Country Club is a hillside course with good views. All par 3s are superb and demanding. Undulating fairways, a lot of waters hazards & deep bunkers protecting greens, an island green, all of which are peculiar to Dye’s design, are adapted in this course, too. It hosted the Korean Open in 2004. A grass clad, natural amphitheatre is made around the 18th green and its slope can accommodate many people without requiring the construction of spectator stands.
The par 3 221-yard 13th is played onto a gently downhill green surrounded by water. The island green is high in the middle and slopes to the back. Personally speaking, I don’t like island greens as I sometimes feel they are too artificial. However this hole is an exception because it is challenging as well as very beautiful, so I enjoyed playing it. The par 5 561-yard 18th starts straight first and then doglegs to the left 100 yards in front of the green. A bunker on the left comes into play off the tee. The sloping landing area of the second shot is squeezed by water and a bunker on the left and bunkers on the right. A bunker protecting the front side of the green should be avoided on the approach shot as it is deep.
