About This Course

Yao Country Club is an 18-hole, par-72 course located in Toyama Prefecture, set against the stunning backdrop of the Tateyama Mountain Range. Designed within a forested, mostly flat terrain, the course features strategically placed ponds and bunkers that challenge players to plan their tee shots carefully. The signature 12th hole is a short par that requires a precise shot over water with views of the mountains beyond. With bentgrass greens and a design by Hideo Takemura, the course offers a mix of bold and thoughtful play, making it a popular venue for the LPGA Tournament Nikko Ladies Open.

Playing Tips

Fairways are relatively narrow with well-placed ponds and bunkers, so prioritize accuracy off the tee over sheer distance.

The signature 12th hole requires a precise short shot over water to hold the green, so choose a club you can confidently land on the green.

Bentgrass greens are generally true and receptive, so focus on controlling approach spin and judging putt speed rather than attacking aggressively from long range.

Though the routing is mostly flat and forested, wind from the Tateyama range can influence ball flight on exposed holes, so check conditions and adjust club selection accordingly.
