COURSE INTRODUCTION
A 1991 Golf Digest recommendation for this Izu highland course
According to Japanese golf media and booking platforms, the course—then known as Izu Golf Club—received recognition connected to the American magazine Golf Digest in 1991 and was included among Japan's top 20 courses. Designed by Shunsuke Kato, it contrasts an open OUT nine with a forested IN nine, while desert-like waste areas, dry rivers and deep grass bunkers create strategic choices.
