Course Introduction

  • Blue Sapphire Golf & Resort

A sharp dogleg hole to the right. There is a hazard on the right side of the hole, and a bunker lies from 130 yards to the green to the front left side of the green. There are trees on the left, right and back of the green, so a second shot with poor direction will incur a penalty.

A short hole with a slight downhill shot over a pond. An island green that stands in the middle of a natural pond.

A tough hole with a steep dogleg to the right. The tee shot is over a pond, and the bunker requires a 250-yard carry, and the left one requires a 220-yard carry. The second shot is a slight uphill shot over the pond, toward a small back-to-back green.

  • Blue Sapphire Golf & Resort

A long hole with a gentle dogleg to the left. The fairway is tight and there is a pond on the left, limiting the landing spot for each shot. The boundary line, which is made up of natural features facing the pond on the left of the hole, is wavy and beautifully curved.

A short hole over a pond. Most of the circular green is bordered by the pond, making the tee shot a tense one. If the pin is close to the hole, even if you choose the right club, if your shot deviates even a little to the left or right, it will be caught in the pond, so it is best to aim for the center of the green. The green is two-tiered with a large step.

This is a long hole that curves left around a large pond. The green is also swung further left, so the third shot must go over the pond.

  • Blue Sapphire Golf & Resort

A long dogleg hole to the left. There is a pond on the left. The second shot is to an elevated green that slopes from left to right. To get on in regulation, you need to hit accurate long shots on both the tee shot and the second shot.

A slightly downhill hole over a pond. The front of the green faces the pond, so an accurate carry is required. The landing area is wide at the front and narrow at the back.
