Blue Canyon leapt to fame when the Canyon Course was selected for the venue of the 1994 Johnnie Walker Classic. Greg Norman holed his final putt to win the Championship. The course also hosted the 1998 Johnnie Walker Classic which saw Tiger Woods win in another exciting finish. Blue Canyon is the only course ever to have been chosen twice to host the Johnnie Walker Classic which is an endorsement in itself.In 1996, the Honda Invitational was also played on this superb course. As a further endorsement of this great course, it has been named “Asian & Pacific Golf Course of the Year, 1999” at the London-based Hertz International Golf Travel Awards.
Located just 5 minutes from the airport, the Canyon Course, which was designed by Yoshikazu Kato of Golf Co, Japan, features numerous natural hazards, acres of lakes accentuated by towering trees, multiple tees, narrow landing areas, rolling fairways and well guarded, slick Bermuda Tiftdwarf greens. A par 72 layout, the course plays from 5,974 to 7,119 yards. All golfers will be challenged and each hole will be remembered on this stunningly beautiful course.
