Bear's Best CheongNa (Australasia & USA)
The 27-hole course at Bear’s Best CheongNa Golf Club is – as you might expect from the name – a Jack Nicklaus design that was unveiled early in the new millennium with each loop named Australasia, Europe and USA.
It’s a proven tournament venue, hosting the tri-sanctioned Shinhan Donghae Open since 2015, which is staged on the Australasia and United States of America circuits.
Bear’s Best CheongNa was the third “Bear’s Best” layout to open after Bear’s Best Las Vegas in 2001 and Bear’s Best Atlanta the following year. The third South Korean sibling opened close to Seoul downtown in 2012, it hosted the Shinhan Donghae Open on the Asian Tour between 2014 and 2019 and the Korea Women’s Open in 2019.
