Designed by a Legend, Built for Champions

In 1984, Seve Ballesteros, one of the most creative and instinctive golfers ever to play the game, turned his hand to course design in Japan. The result is a big, ambitious layout in Ibaraki Prefecture that reflects Seve's boldness: 7,033 yards from the back tees, imaginative bunkering, and risk-reward decisions built into the architecture at every turn. This is a course that rewards the brave and punishes the reckless, very much in the spirit of the man who designed it.

Seven thousand yards of Seve's imagination: dramatic, demanding, and completely his own.

For golf history enthusiasts, playing Seve Ballesteros Golf Club is a rare opportunity to walk a course shaped by one of the sport's all-time greats. The design reflects Seve's own playing philosophy: wide enough to invite aggression, but with enough trouble around greens and at key decision points to make conservative play equally valid. Located in Inashiki, Ibaraki, it sits within reach of Tokyo and offers a genuinely distinctive experience that most public golfers in Japan will never have on their radar. That is precisely why it deserves to be on yours.
