Forest City Golf Resort’s encore to its Legacy Course was completed in 2019 when architect Liang Guokun unveiled his 7,138-yard Classic Course.

It presents a very different challenge. Instead of the Legacy’s more open, naturalistic layout, the Classic Course is an impeccably manicured affair, with narrower fairways, punctuated by sharply etched bunkers and lakes.

 

But you will need your A-game. The Classic Course demands accuracy from tee to green and provides few safe options for the high-handicapper. There is one route on most holes and all must take it – a daunting prospect when you contemplate a carry over two lake inlets at the par-4 5th or the island green on the par-3 that follows it.

The designer’s use of dramatic fairway mounding is best seen at 14, where he relies solely on undulations to defend the green. Factor in multi-tier greens with breaks that put a heavy premium on accurate approach shots and you face a stern test right to the end of your round.

The 580-yard 18th would make a wonderful climax to a pro tournament but will be a daunting finish for tired amateurs. Play it from anything other than the most forward tee and your ball must find two cape fairways, followed by an island green that’s also ringed with sand. That’s three shots over water on the same hole.

Forest City Golf Resort - Legacy Course

Absolute Instagram gold. Every hole was a calendar cover, begging for a drone shot and a dramatic voiceover.

Now this was more like it. Every hole on the Legacy Course looked like it had just been unwrapped from the factory, clean, crisp, and begging for a photo shoot. The fairways were manicured like a a bonsai tree garden trimmed by monks, and the greens looked like they’d just beens moothed out like a Photoshop filter on an ageing celebrity. We teed off at 8:30am and wrapped up around 2pm, with yet another small rain delay thrown in for good measure. The pace of play? Meh. Not fast, not painfully slow. As a 4 handicapper, I toggled between the black and blue tees to keep things interesting. Some of the black tee boxes turned innocent-looking par 4s into full-blown marathons. On the flip side, a few of the blue and white tees were too far forward. One par 3 stretched over 200 metres, I picked a club, whispered a prayer, and swung with the confidence of someone who had no backup ball. The rough was definitely more forgiving than the Classic Course, & Bunkers were thoughtfully placed if you’re off the forward tees. Now let’s talk tee box views. Magic. Every single one looked like it was ready for its golf calendar debut. You could hit a worm-burner and still look like a PGA pro in the pictures. I stopped caring about my scorecard and started caring about camera angles. All up, the Legacy Course is a must-play. Bring your rain gear, pick your tee boxes with care, and charge your phone, because you’ll want to capture every hole, every sunset, and maybe a few moments of quiet rage if you catch that 200m par 3 on a breezy day. LOVED IT!

Awesome! It's expensive, but I really want to visit again. Both the fairway and the green were perfect.

Great trip, easy to book. Courses are beautiful. F&B is a huge let down….

Beautiful courses. The golf is challenging at times. well-maintained fairways and greens. Gardens are gorgeous. There needs to be a restaurant with a La carte food options catering to the clientele playing golf. The bar doesn’t open until 7pm which is well later than finishing golf.
