Hong Kong’s Legendary, Rugged Clearwater Bay Golf Course

A Southern California professional, Paul Wakolbinger serves as a sales director with Kyriba and focuses on treasury management system solutions. Reflecting a longstanding passion for golf, Paul Wakolbinger has experienced links spanning Hawaii, Scotland, Bali, and Hong Kong. Regularly ranked among the top 10 throughout Asia, Hong Kong’s Clearwater Bay Golf and Country Club has been compared to Pebble Beach for its combination of world-class holes and dramatic coastal setting, as it inhabits a curved peninsula jutting out into the water. Situated in the New Territories, the 6,600-yard course makes up in wind and rugged terrain what it lacks in length. While the fairways are broad, the rough is difficult to get out of once the ball is planted there. In addition, placement on the short side of the pin often results in the wind-assisted ball rolling off the green. Reflecting the course’s prestigious history, Clearwater Bay is a longstanding stop on the PGA Tour China, and it has given up-and-coming players a taste of its rugged grandeur through the Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship event.
