Jack Nicklaus Legacy Course

Designed jointly by Jack Nicklaus and Jack Nicklaus II, the Legacy Course covers approximately 740,000 square metres. Its distinctive desert-style landscape combines rugged sandy terrain with natural mangroves, creating a setting that blends wild beauty with international tournament standards. Broad fairways, longer playing distances and strategic hole layouts offer an enjoyable round for recreational golfers and a substantial challenge for competitive players. Beside the mangroves, golfers may encounter monkeys, egrets, cranes, lizards and other wildlife, making the course a distinctive experience of golf in harmony with nature.

Liang Guokun Classic Course

Designed by renowned golf course architect Liang Guokun, the Classic Course follows a philosophy of respecting and returning to nature. Formerly flat coastal land has been shaped into a varied, undulating landscape. The 7,138-yard course covers 69 hectares, combining lakes, waterways and natural terrain into a self-circulating water system. Its carefully varied fairways and changing scenery give every hole both visual appeal and strategic interest, making it a model of environmentally considerate course design.

Forest City Golf Club provides 26 driving bays, two private practice rooms, and dedicated putting, chipping and bunker practice areas for players of all abilities. Internationally certified coaches from China, Malaysia, South Korea and other countries offer structured lessons and personalised training. The club also supports junior golf through its recurring Forest City Cup junior tournaments and youth development programmes, helping the sport grow across the region.

Golf Pro Shop

Located in the clubhouse, the Forest City pro shop stocks clubs, bags, clothing, shoes, accessories and souvenirs for equipment purchases, tournaments and holiday shopping.
