Blue Canyon, Phuket, Thailand
Archhitect Yoshikazu Kato took great care to mould his design ides for the Canyon Course around the natural environment of Phuket Island, making use of the natural woodlands and pothography of the land. The result is a striking, organic desigh, giving a feeling of unperturbed spontaneity to the intimidating natural hazards and the lush fairways.
The Canyon Course features 80 bunkers and water at 10 of its holes as well as plenty of narrow tree-lined fairways, seberal dog-legs, narrow landing areas and well guarded, slick Bermuda Tifdwarf greens to challenge event the most proficient golfers. Add to this the natural woodlands and roll of the turf, the rough which can punish severely all who accidentally stray there and its par 3, award winning 17th hole, and you have a course which has become one of Asia's most sought after golf destinations.
