The 45 Places to Go in 2012
The Sunday New York Times (January 8, 2012) included Songdo and the Jack Nicklaus Golf Club Korea in the six-page feature in yesterday's Travel section, "The 45 Places to Go in 2012."
The item, Number 42. South Korea: Is Golf's Newest Hot Spot in Asia?
"South Korea is redefining just how luxurious golf resorts can be. A slew of new private clubs - the kind with six-digit membership fees, designs by celebrity architects and clubhouses that look like modern art museums - have opened recently in the country.
And the futuristic Jack Nicklaus Golf Club Korea, which opened last year in the financial center of Songdo, has a huge, undulating clubhouse designed by the California architect Mehrdad Yazdani.
In 2015, South Korea will be the host of the Presidents Cup for the first time; apparently there are some tournament-worthy courses to go with all those fancy new clubhouses."
