Hakone Country Club, home to a private and well-rated tree-lined and open parkland layout, is located close to Lake Ashi in the Hakone highlands ... the foothills of the volcanic Mount Hakone and Mount Kamiyama. Bordering Hakone Country Club immediately to the south is Hakonekohan Golf Club, and to the north Daihakone Country Club. Course description, images and other details to follow.
Private club - guests can only play if hosted by a member.
The layout at Hakone CC was designed by Japanese golf course architect Shiro Akaboshi, who, with his brother Rokuro, was a keen student of golf design. The Akaboshi brothers paid close attention to the work of Charles "Hugh" Alison as the great British designer travelled through Japan in 1930. During this trip Alison designed (or redesigned) some of Japan's greatest courses, e.g. Hirono GC, Kawana Hotel (Fuji course), Kasumigaseki CC (East course) and Naruo GC.
The course hosted the Japan Women’s Open in 2002, and has also staged other premier tournaments.
The Masters: The 88th Masters Tournament at Augusta National sees LIV golfer Jon Rahm defend his title against the world’s best. Pressing hard will be world No.1 and 2022 champion Scottie Scheffler and world No.2 Rory McIlroy (April 11-14).
Chevron Championship: the women’s major championship season gets underway for the second year at its new Carlton Woods home outside Houston, Texas. World No.2 Lilia Vu defends (April 18-21).
Nelly Korda: records a perfect start to 2024 with four wins out of her last four appearances on the LPGA Tour, a feat last achieved by Lorena Ochoa in 2008. Korda's win at the T-Mobile Match Play brought up her 12th LPGA Tour victory.
Scottie Scheffler: narrowly missed out on matching Nelly Korda’s three-in-three, when he placed second at the Houston Open. This followed back-to-back wins at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and The Players. Like Korda, he remains comfortably ahead in the official world golf rankings.
Marco Simone Golf & Country Club: With a clubhouse that might befit a Roman Emperor, and a golf course to match, you can be sure of a memorable outing at Rome's most talked about golf facility.
Jim Fazio's original layout was much changed to create a modern Ryder Cup course ... now one of the Eternal City's (and Italy's) most revered.
